Just saw this last statement today. You’re somewhat wrong J44xm.
Pegasus Mail does support languages of different “alphabets”, like Hebrew (LTR), Russian, Korean and Japanese (can’t swear as I don’t speak any of them), even in late versions. After adopting Unicode (among 26 other charsets) it extended its support much further.
Besides this charset thing, there’s nothing out there that matches Pegasus Mail power and functionality. It’s the One mailing system, not just a mailer.
And BTW, it’s quite alive and well. New versions are on their way. See for yourself. ;^)
