The simplicity of this client is quite beautiful.

I wonder though, how do you keep the client minimal, while also maintaining a useful level of functionality?

It's something I've tackled with over the years while developing DarwinMail[1]. I've always tried to keep the UI clean and clutter free, while still providing all the functionality the user would like (that I learn about from feedback and also from other tools research).

I'd love to hear your thoughts on how you decide what features make the cut, and how they are designed?

This is Apple Mail with some settings to make it “minimal.”
