While I generally support the idea of using markdown when
composing email, there are times where it is aggravating to the
point where it's easier to open a separate mail client and do the
mail from there.
The specific case I am thinking of, is when you want to embed a
table. Creating a table in markdown is a horrific endeavour. Even
when using a WYSIWYG client, what I end up doing is creating what I
want using a spreadsheet, and then copying the edited range and
pasting it into a mail. In all other mail clients, this creates an
HTML table.
When I paste the same table in MailMate, It only gives me the
raw text, forcing me to recreate the table. Then I start to OCD
while lining the column lines up so that everything looks
right.
It is rare that I have to do this, but when I do, it's important
enough that not being able to do it is a dealbreaker. There needs
to be some kind of options for creating basic tables in
MailMate.
