What kind of emails need markdown composing?

1 comments

It's awesome for emails containing snippets of code, code with syntax highlighting being my use case.

And for formatting in general, the resulting email (composed in MailMate) will be very friendly to clients that prefer to display emails as plain text, since the text version is going to be very clean.

There's also a browser extension working with GMail's web interface too, but it doesn't work as well as MailMate: https://markdown-here.com/
