Mailbird installer froze and crashed on first install.

It didn't crash, it just took about 7 minutes to end the install, while giving me a 'continue' button that ignored me.

Is this better than thunderbird?

The paid version is great, if you want to pay.  The free version only lets you have one account.

Well that's kind of ridiculous. I don't mind paying, but trying it out will require usage of more than one account.

The trial allows use of multiple accounts i think, not tried it yet but the intro screen implied that.

The trial is for multiple accounts and it worked fine for me.  Much better than Thunderbird or Mail did.

Cool, I'll check it out. tbird gets flakey with a few accounts with lots of mail.

I bought it, only a tenner for a year.

Fast interface, would be good if you could choose which accounts were included in the unified inbox. Has the basic functionality i need.
Doesn't take 2 minutes to mark an email as read when you click on it like Outlook 2016 does (even when Outlook is set to mark as read within 2 seconds).

It's having trouble with SMTP, hanging on sending with no error.
