The hope is that this guide and website can act as a simple way to introduce newcomers - whether it’s you, friends or family - into this space and try something else besides the default options.

There is also a community-driven, open-source site ( https://purchasewithpurpose.io/category/email/ ) that aims to make this even easier. This includes screenshots, ratings and a larger feature list.

I’ve also started tracking impact to help keep the momentum. If there are any other stats, please share them so I can add them to the guides and, eventually, the website.

I would lose so much context in a straight migration (and who knows how it would determine which single label gets top survive as a folder reference?

    (yes, there’s a parenthesis missing. Sucks if you’re Lisp, I guess.
