Discuss email privately. Invite teammates to discuss specific email and threads. Ask questions, get answers, and keep everyone in the loop. The new Spark feels like the first product that may finally solve email communication and assignments for the MacStories team. Mail begins to download, and then it 'hangs' on a message. It's a different message every time, though, so I know it's not an issue with one of the emails. By the way, the issue only happens for my Yahoo! Gmail and.mac work just fine. (Oh, and web-based Yahoo! Email works fine, too.).
