I am totally with you on this one - I was using Gmail exclusively the past 2 years (after having been on Outlook/Exchange for many years) and was happy with it. After I got Leopard and the new Mail I use Gmail as a spamfilter and then forward the rest to my .Mac account.
It works great with iPhone and IMAP on .Mac is a lot faster in my experience. I also like the fact that I have access to all my mail offline and Quicklook of attachments is amazing. I also dropped QuickSilver (sorry Merlin) - but Spotlight just does all I need now.
Finally I have adapted Zero Inbox - thanks Merlin!
I have an Archive folder with a subfolder for each year and that is it. I am far more efficient, having far less stress. I am, however, still using Google Reader as my one and only RSS reader.
