Mailspring: Bug: Requires Mailspring account to use

[ChrysAlice]

It's absurd that a Mailspring is required in order to use Mailspring as an e-mail client. It's not even possible to see the UI in order to determine if the app is worthwhile before creating said account.

There are dozens of reasons why a Mailspring account is useful. There are zero reasons why it is necessary. As such, making it necessary before the installer even runs is either a bug or a design flaw, and it should be fixed.

Agreed, you shouldn't need a mailspring account to use the client. What if you have an outage, how many 9s of uptime does my mail client have?
