Ask YC: Anyone else trying out zenbe's email?
I just got an invite to the beta, but I'm a lazy emailer and a little wary of importing all of my yahoo mail to their site. Anyone already playing guinea pig?

I am using it along side my gmail account. I like the way the way they have improved traditional email. I like their tabbed interface and the calendar tool is fairly useful as well.
The best feature is the attachment tab. Having a list of all the attachments you are currently storing is a very nice feature.
I haven't had any problems with having other accounts forwarding to my Zenbe address, I am having a good beta experience!

Their startup is one I've thought would be a good idea (a universal inbox), and it sounds like they already have a calendar and some other features built-in.
I tried it, it's ok. It needs message previews and keyboard navigation (they're going to add keyboard shortcuts soon). The integrated to-do/calendar is a great feature, I just wish gmail had it. Getting emails is also a bit slower than in gmail (not that slow, but enough to notice).
It didn't seem to do anything useful when it tried to add additional email addresses from outside sources. Nothing ever imported and for some it didn't ask passwords or anything. Just didn't immediately understand what would happen next, so I left and didn't come back (yet?).swor
I would love to test this out. This is the first time hearing of this. I do need something to keep my over wired life in control.
