by screenshot alone, it looks like MS actually made a more readable/glance-able UI in their mail app than Apple.
I'm looking at colour, contrast, space efficiency, and visual affordances.
There's an obvious hierarchy, and my eyes know where to go.
Interestingly, it's nearly impossible to find Mail.app screenshots for Sequoia. Apple's own big preview of it only shows a tiny pic of a compose window (not the full UI).

@octothorpe Allow me to direct you to the @512pixels Mac Screenshot Library, there you will find at least a couple: https://512pixels.net/projects/aqua-screenshot-library/macos-15-sequoia/

@tuomas_h @512pixels thanks! FYI, that page is not happy on mobile with reader mode (switching off reader mode turns the situation into whackamole of it turning back on when you tap).

@octothorpe My macOS Mail setup is sufficiently different from the default that I kinda forget how the original looks

@adrianh A couple things:
1. I love that you've set it up for exactly the opposite of how the OS comes these days (text only vs icon only) — I'm an icon and text person like the OG defaults.
2. It also seems like you have 'increase contrast' turned on, as do I.Brilliant. Although it's unfortunate that the defaults have to be mangled to have it more usable.

@octothorpe looks the same for me but I changed the default layout a while ago and it kept the prefs

@onikaze yeah, aside from AI stuff, mail isn’t even explicitly mentioned at all on their page. That’s interesting to me.
