Okay, its time for me to move my email to a client on the debian desktop, and I'm inlcined towards using KMail because I was always happy with it on my old SuSE system, but before I set it up, I was wondered if anyone had any other suggestions?
I've used Sylpheed for quite a few years now and I've never been disappointed with it. I'm actually using "sylpheed-claws" which is the development branch, but not, sort of.... anyhow, they're the same client for all intents and purposes.
My preference is for a client that can have html switched off, or even better doesn't have html in messages.
Switched *off*? With Sylpheed-claws, unless you actually install the Dillo plugin, it *won't* render HTML, no matter how hard you try. On the plus side... if the message has been sent "as html" then it'll usually extract the text from it without the tags.
Other than that, I have multiple pop3 accounts, and multiple sending addresses. Would like a feature similar to the one I used in KMail, where the default sender can be set to a folder.
I currently use it with 4 POP/SMTP accounts, although I have set up about 30 profiles. UKLinux.net and Prodigynet.co.uk (my ISPs) allow you to have infinite 'aliases', so I often setup an alias for sendinf to various lists, etc. Grant. -- Artificial intelligence is no match for nuratal stidutipy. -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG Mail majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxx with "unsubscribe list" in the message body to unsubscribe.
