I can't believe you put in Evolution, but not Kontact. I *suppose* Kontact has Kmail encapsulated within it, but it's not really a fair comparison. Kmail should be renamed Kontact/Kmail because while Kmail is a damn fine email client, with the Kontact integration, it becomes truly amazing. It blows Evolution away, especially when you throw in Akregator integration.

Thunderbird beats Gmail :P
Just the fact that it wasnt around all that long ago makes it even more impressive- same for firefox. Spread them! Spread them like the plague! Err... a cool plague.

I just began using Thunderbird this week for my non-Gmail emails. Not bad...In fact, quite good so far. I'm liking it.

ya this is a bit after the fact, i voted tbird, but thanks to the guys who posted about sylpheed, i gave it a try, and it really ROX!
thanks for broadening my horizons! it is fast and does what it does well (as opposed to the "everything and the kitchen sink" programming model).
firefox and sylpheed.... that rox!
i'll most likely vote sylpheed next year (unless i find something better, it is superior to evolution and tb, the two i've mainly used).
cheers
