I have been using Mail for a year now, and although I like a few things about it, there a few annoying things I must vent about here.
1. Spell check is awful. Please fix it or let me send it to my Office dictionary. Sooooo many common words come up mispelled when they are not and it has an IQ of about 3 when it tries to suggest a correct spelling - meaning it often has none. It needs more power like auto correct. This is not rocket science - I said it before and I will say it here - talk to some poor laid of developer from Claris and get the code for their spell check - it was brilliant and the thesaurus was the only thesaurus that had an entry for "thesaurus." (in it's day - MS finally has this now)
FYI, please don't give me the work around for spelling services - I tried it and I saw no huge improvement - I guess i botched it, but I shouldn't have to be a system admin to have a decent spell check (remember, we are talking about a Mac running Apple software). Life is too short and I want this as standard equipment - it really isn't too much to ask.
2. Mail is the #1 crashing app on OS X on the three Macs we have at our house. More than IE which has been very stable for some time now. Do I need to say anything more about this?
