I've been using it off and on ever since the first preview release, and
I have used it exclusively starting with preview release 7.

The opening screen is there for a reason.  It is neither finished nor
perfect.  I have found that it must be explored to find its current
limitations, and then used within them.  And then, like the opening
screen says, "...you could be, too."

Why do I use it?

Because I love this mail client.  And, feeling that way about it, I try
to learn how to use it effectively.

Sure, there are bugs.  

But, hey, if I could put up with X-Mail and CC:Mail, I can put up with
anything.
