Evolution isn't quite stable yet. I managed to use if for about a week before it barfed. Sylpheed is kinda nifty, but it didn't want to play nice with IMAP. (Ok, there aren't many clients that play nice with IMAP...) Spruce (GNOME/GTK) and Kmail (KDE) are some of the better X based clients out there. Basla is ok (but libmutt is on crack, just ask the developers) -- From: Peter Williams <peter at newton.cx> (Balsa Developer, at least at the time) Libmutt is derived from the venerable Mutt mailer. It sucks. It's klunky, disorganized, ancient, hackish, kludgy, unclear, and completely non-expandable. You don't want to toy with libmutt. You want to wrap it in a cloth and beat it with a stick until it stops wriggling. Okay, I'm exaggerating, but not very much. -- Stick with pop3 and local mail spools (or local mail spools fed by fetchmail) and there are a number of greate clients to choose from. Go with IMAP and you get just a few: Netscape, pine, mutt, Spruce, Mahogony, and Postallion are the ones that come to mind. If I ever write my own MUA, I think I'll call it Epoxy. -- Andy Zbikowski, Sys Admin | (WEB) http://www.ltiflex.com LTI Flexible Products, Inc. | (PH) 763-428-9119 (EX) 132 21801 Industrial Blvd | (FX) 763-428-9126 Rogers, MN 55374 | (PCS) 612-306-6055 -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
