Good Mail Client?


I don't like kmail very much. Are there any other Email clients out there that you guys would recommend?

I'm running slackware 9.1.

-Thanks

Evolution has tasks and calendering built in. Thunderbird is pretty cool too, from the firefox browser people. It is extensible.

I like Mutt...best thing I've ever used for email. It's cut down my emailing time by several minutes just from being lightning fast and not bothering to display HTML messages.

Im currently running Evolution as I like the calender etc features before that it was Sylpheed-Claws, which I swear must be the fastest X mail client out.

I think you'd be most pleased with Thunderbird if you are recieving any amount of spam, as it has a baynesian filter built in. If you turn it on, you'll run out of spam in about a week of training it. Many folks swear by evolution as well. (I like Mutt too, but usually read my system mail the primitive way, through a pager)

Evolution. It integrates very very well with SpamAssassin.

No complaints from me. -- J.W.
