All the other email clients have problems with the way gmail is handeling labels, this one is the only one except the official Chrome extension that keeps your labels as labels and so it's a perfect way how to have gmail stored localy. Thumbs up.

Tried Thunderbird, but I didn't like the UI and how it synced my mail. Geary, on the other hand, is simple, sleek and fast. Recommend.

Agree 100% - couldn't get Thunderbird (Ubuntu) to download mail from my Hotmail account, Geary OTOH is fast and simple.

Though it's true that the company that originally developed Geary has been closed, Geary is not dead. It's Code has been moved to the GNOME Website (https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Geary) and there is still some development activity.
