What’s happening with Mail.app?

It’s things like this that make me pine for Eudora.

Apple’s email client has two ways to tell you that there is mail activity, but no way to tell you who, what, and how many. Maybe I was dreaming but pretty much most email clients I have used in the past tell you:

  • Message traffic count (i.e. Incoming message 3/5)
  • From email address
  • Name and size of attachment

They also have a cancel button for cancelling outgoing mail. While there is a button for this in Mail.app, I’ve never seen it work.

Am I missing something?
