Products that do what Open source mobile email client built with HTML/CSS/JS does

Hey HN, I've been working on an email client and wanted to get some feedback! Minimail is built on Phonegap, so it uses HTML/CSS/JS for everything user-facing. The app also uses emailbox (a related project of mine) as the backend API for receiving/parsing/sending emails. I think email clients need a huge UX/UI overhaul, and so I'm trying to build a flexible/hackable email client that anyone can customize to fit their email workflow. Thanks for any feedback!

    Hey guys, so I've been building my own Gmail for the past few weeks and would like your feedback. Find a preview here: http://i.imgur.com/UDz2y.png (Mouse cursor is over the "REPLY" button, to show the hover-effect) The app you see in the screenshot is what I've been using in the past week and it starts to feel better than the gmail interface. Just a quick explanation: - It's conversation-based like Gmail. - Conversations with new emails are on the left. - Conversations may be labeled ... based on predefined filters or manually. - Every conversation stays in the left sidebar until marked…

    Maillune – Embeddable drag-and-drop email editor as a single component▲7

    Alot of companies (Including the one i work at fulltime) use third party email builders to provide custom email functionality to users. However this is a niche sector and the prices are... insane? So to try and fix this i built Maillune, a embeddable emailbuilder sdk that is alot cheaper with a usable free tier for hobby projects. The entire goal was to make the features transparent and logical. With lower focus on feature paywalls and aiming on a more "Out of the box" approach. This is one of my recent projects ive built in parallel with my fulltime job. All feedback is welcome, good or bad!
