User Reviews
"Been using GyazMail for a few months now...find it to be a GREAT simple mail app. No HTML mail yet (I don't care), but is promised in a future release. The integration with Apple's Address Book is nice. No junk mail filter, but like I said, it's a simple mail app. It's pretty solid, and I haven't had any crashes, unexpected quits, or quirkiness. Runs really well on my old B&W 350, which is a refreshing change to the constant beachballing of M$ Entourage. Their updates have been timely; I will gladly plunk down the few $$$ they are asking for once it hits version 1.0."
