    Favorite Email Client?

    Just out of curiousity, I was wondering how many of you are using evolution, thunderbird, etc.

    I personally liked evolution, but moved to thunderbird to try it out and haven't gone back...

    haha, that's the one that I don't use non-web for... I probably wouldn't even be asking this if I didn't have a separate work account, huh?

    Thunderbird/gmail together. They play nicely. POP3 support in webmail is fantastic. I hope they don't decide to charge for it when they go gold.

    I like the simplicity of thunderbird to, but really get me is the spam filter, it is the best in the world. Why? Because you tell it what is spam, and what is not spam. I also use gmail

    Re: Favorite Email Client?

    On linux I've used:
    Mozilla Mail (some probemes with the account) -> Sylpheed -> Sylpheed Claws
    (cannot write unicode characters) -> Mozilla Thunderbird.

    Too bad that Sylpheed Claws it's not ported to GTK2 and then add some HIG love...

    Evolution2 is nice too, way better than 1.4.

    Thunderbird it is, it laks the "Remove duplicates" function though, which could come in handy sometimes...

    I definitely prefer Thunderbird. I used Kmail for a long time prior to that, until I discovered the junk mail controls in Thunderbird. That and it's simple to setup/use.

    Re: Favorite Email Client?

    Evolution

    because I can backup my mail to a .pst type file. (unlike Thunderbird)
    because it looks pretty (much better than the old Evolution under Red Hat 9)
    because I can download mail & still keep it on my email server (POP)
    because I can use POP and IMAP
    because I also use Outlook2000, so it has the same look & feel of Outlook.
    because I use web-based Yahoo Mail as my spam catcher
    because I use fastmail as my "real" email account.
