Email Sux
Maybe it is just me, but why is it that no one can invent a great email program? I mean, they really all suck. Nothing is built for my needs… huge volumes of email, lots of important requests from dozens of sources, tons of email lists, and tons of spam. It takes hours to sort…

First Hit
