If MacOS were my daily driver, I'd use Apple Mail without hesitation. No free email client comes even close (and few, if any, paid clients, for that matter).
I love Linux (which is my daily driver), but its options for email clients have sucked forever. I grudgingly use Mailspring, occasionally installing Thunderbird as a backup in case that acts up (as it often does, but it's still somehow less frustrating than TB). Geary's lack of a unified inbox is a nonstarter for me, Evolution is too buggy, and KMail is a joke (this coming from a huge fan of KDE in recent years).
Mailspring is great when it works. But there are lots of issues: Taking forever to sync mail, extremely high RAM/CPU usage when syncing, mapped delete key sometimes deleting/sometimes archiving, and more that can make it extremely frustrating.
I have to disagree I have been using it for a year on three laptops and never had any issues like that. The syncing for me has less issues than default mac client. I get instantaneous notifications and have linked 10 emails on each devices (gmail, outlook, custom smtp).
Meh. I'm cheap, and I don't need any of those extra features. And again, Linux is my daily driver (but Mac Mail would be more than enough if I used MacOS daily).
OK, my mistake, though I'd be curious to see if it at least tries to nag me given how many email addresses/providers I use - double digit accounts - but nagging is fine if unobtrusive, Mailspring does too (though that's one thing I love about recent releases of Apple Mail, it doesn't choke on several accounts, at least not nearly as bad as other clients). Still doesn't change that I gain no benefit from its features and that it doesn't support my OS.
I haven't tried Spark on Mac but have had no issues with six accounts on iOS and Android. I'd like to use it on Mac, but I use the Antidote grammar checker (it's for English and French) and it integrates with Thunderbird (and Apple Mail, I think) but not Spark. I could run it manually but I'm way too lazy for that. :D

MailSpring as simple as Apple Mail but cleaner ui and better navigation and tagging, and activity tracker as well.

You're fortunate. Mac Mail syncs way faster with my double digit accounts than Mailspring on Mac or Linux, using far less CPU/RAM.
Check out spark, mac email lacks tons of features.

Its free man haha
