Gmail is the first email client that allowed me to focus on communication and not worry about how to catalog stuff, in order to find it later.

The concept of archive, fast search and threading are something I wouldn't want to be without anymore.

Yes, it is amazing how it changed the way I viewed email. But why hasn't a copycat mail client come about, with all of the advantages of running native, come about to surpass it?
