Mailmate missing emal upgrade#

I never experienced this because I don’t use those folder settings on my MacBook Air, and I didn’t upgrade my iMac (my main work computer) until well after Mail had been updated. First, there was its problem with GMail and certain folder settings. Messages improved, too, although I suspect that had more to do with backend improvements than with the Messages program itself. The former Address Book and iCal have kept their new iOS-inspired names 2 but have returned to a more Mac-like look and function. With the introduction of Mavericks, Apple said all the right things and seemed to be making corrections. 1 Mac users bemoaned these regressions and blamed it on unwarranted iOSification. And iCal hid its calendar list, slowed down the navigation between months, and stylized its day numbers to the point where they were difficult to read. Address Book lost its three-pane view, making groups of contacts difficult to deal with. Messages, a new app, couldn’t stay in sync, refused to deliver messages on time, and often bungled the message order. Most users, though, happily used the built-in apps from Apple they have had a limited feature set, but what they did they did well. Power users often bitched about these apps-“I had a contact manager on my Palm Pilot in 1998 that could do things Address Book still can’t”-and a community of third-party developers created plug-ins and pro apps that added the features missing from Mail, iCal, and Address Book.
