Hi,

You might find this crazy, but switch to Microsoft's email at outlook.com. It's what I use, and I really like it a lot. It supports Exchange ActiveSync, which is the absolute best protocol to support, IMO. It also supports IMAP and I think POP3, but don't quote me on that. I would never choose to get locked in to iCloud, just because I run many different OS's. If you don't, iCloud may be fine. Just my $0.02.

Thanks,
Blake

My main problem is indeed the Imap. I had a rather lively discussion
about the issues on this list a while back. I managed to converse with
Google and Apple, and it was fixed for a while, but now no matter what
I do e-mails either 1) Don't arrive or show up on time, 2) Aren't sent
immediately (even with refresh), or 3) Are unceremoniously dumped into
my Archives folder, even though I went through the process to make
this not happen under the imap settings for Gmail on their website.
I'll probably eventually switch to my iCloud e-mail address, but at
this point it seems like an enormous hastle to switch everything over,
and could be rather lengthy especially as I am in a position of having
to e-mail back and forth with possible employers and other companies.
If you know of a way to fix the Gmail issue, I'd be open to anything,
really. I like the way Apple Mail interacts with iCloud accounts, but
the system Gmail uses for Imap totally screws Apple Mail up. I know
this also used to work in Mountain Lion to my knowledge, but since the
update to Mavericks it's been extremely intermittent. I use Gmail fine
on my iOS devices as well.
Thanks, Jason -- I'll look into those.

not much in the way of accessible mail clients for OS X aside from the
default one.

There is Mutt, of course, and presumably Alpine as well as Emacs-based mail
readers such as Gnus and VM. I don't know whether Mozilla Thunderbird is
accessible under OS X.
