I’d be interested to hear what good email tools look like if you have a chance to post some examples.

The good ones are fairly technical, but there are services that make them easier. Sieve or procmail filters and clients like macOS Mail.app and mutt are good ones.

My main email client is macOS Mail.app and it's pretty great when configured properly in conjunction with serverside preprocessing/filtering.

You have called people rubes and not provided any examples of this proper configuration. Dissapointing and trollish.

I didn't call anyone a rube.

Though for those used to a GUI, Thunderbird works reasonably well for threading, quoting conventions, and support for plain text mail. It's also cross platform (at least for the desktop environment).
