I read about Spark when it first came out. I didn't like the way it needed to store all my account passwords so it could download the mails itself in order to ping me and tell me there were new ones.
It's been going a while now and I'm sure it's a respectable company, but at the time it was new and I didn't trust it. I gave it a go on my phone with a little used account and didn't like it. I don't get hundreds of mails and don't need any type of auto categorisation*, or snooze type features.
I've also tried Outlook, but it fails at something I need regularly, and that is having multiple addresses linked to a domain. Such as sales@domain.com info@domain.com personal.mail@domain.com etc. Apple Mail (iOS and MacOS) handles multiple reply-from addresses beautifully.
Plus, MacOS Mail is scriptable. I have an Applescript that takes a year as input, and finds every mail received/sent in that year and copies it to an "On My Mac" folder. I could, if I wanted, then trash them from my IMAP accounts, although I don't usually bother.
* I've turned off the iOS 18 categorisation option - I'm sticking with ye olde List View.
This is a valid annoyance, though. I also wish it could be disabled.
