You should try it from SBo instead.

ive been using seamonkey for a long time and i hate it.
The text editor is buggy and goofy and I have been fed up with it
for a long time. I dont like thunderbird or claws-mail either.

A good desktop mail client on Linux is just not available. Claws is OK, but marred by the clunky Gtk interface, and who knows what new abominations Gtk4 will bring?

The Becky mail client for Windows is about the best desktop client I ever found. It works under Wine, but not quite 100%, and who wants to trust their email to a second layer of abstraction?

I now just use the Fastmail web interface, which has excellent out-of-the-box single-key shortcuts. It's as close to a desktop client as you can get with webmail. Another option, though fiddly, is to set up Getmail or Fetchmail, deliver to a local maildir, and use something like Roundcube to access your mail locally.

Isn't mutt in a virtual terminal a desktop mail client ?
It's, with some config, a very decent mail client.

It certainly is. I'll have to figure out how to pipe all those wretched HTML emails to Pandoc to render them in the pager as markdown, and preserve the markdown in replies.

May I ask what you've ended up with?

Or are you still suffering?

To pipe to Pandoc I believe it's a matter of mailcap. If the second part is to pipe back in html... That might be a bit tricky. Never tested that since I had problem to compile it back in the days.

I might try this if Pandoc compiles fine tonight : https://unix.stackexchange.com/quest...own-using-mutt

edit : Just saw that SBo SlackBuild that repackage the binary....
