I would like some feedback on good email clients. I am using Mandrake 10 and Evolution at moment. While Evolution is quite good several things annoy me not the least the inability to move data like contacts in and out. Evolution only offers to save in vcard format. It also still has a time problem with people in my time zone.
I looked at KDE Kontact and it offered promise but it only allows you to have one contact folder. I prefer to operate several eg Business, Private, Club etc.
I also want ability to mass mail for small groups of contacts and the list feature of Evolution has bugs in it
So let me know if you have any good suggestions for Email PIM type email systems.
Thanks

just to answer the title of the questions, the best email client is the one you prefer, you know how to use...

pine/thunderbird but as mrcheeks says....u use the one u can use and like.

While I agree with what the last two say, I was really looking for suggestions on clients other than the ones I have tried.

I use the mail client that comes with mozilla and im very sattisfied with it ..
if you prefer a standalone version you could use thunderbird as said above www.mozilla.org


"I looked at KDE Kontact and it offered promise but it only allows you to have one contact folder. I prefer to operate several eg Business, Private, Club etc.

The mail client i use has this features as allows to have multiple adress books of contacts and also is able to mass mail predefned groups...
Is able to filter mail and put it in correct folders so for my needs is perfect but as said above it depends to much of one use it .

Mutt will be the best if you can use well, Evolution also is fine.

Just do a Google search, try them all, and then decide for yourself which is best. Personally, I think Evolution is excellent, but if it's not cutting it for you, then try something else. -- J.W.
