Ask HN: Mental block - where is "email for hipsters"?

from the ask-hn dept.

I saw a beautiful, in-all-likelyhood-html5 webmail client that is stuck in my mind as "email for hipsters" but I can't remember its name?

There was a project from Mozilla Labs called Raindrop which kind of sounds like what you are asking for. However, the last update to that site was quite some time ago (August 2010) and I doubt the project is still active.

Email for hipsters, wouldn't that be something like Pine?

Good idea, but I just tried it and it's a pretty poor experience.
