[QUOTE="vansmith, post: 1186670, member: 71075"] Apparently Gmail has some idiosyncrasies that are addressed in Sparrow but complicate things when trying to setup other accounts. That's what I've heard - not sure if it's true or not though. I'm guessing this explains the Gmail only support right now. I'm not sure I could justify spending $10 on an email client that only supports Gmail ATM especially when the web interface works perfectly and supports every feature. Running Gmail in Chrome with the "Minimalist for Gmail" extension makes Gmail perfect as a web app. This isn't to say that the app would be bad - just not for me ;). [/QUOTE]
