The two features I would like to see in it (and they might
be there for all I know, but I can't find them easilly if they
are there), that I got used to in KMail, is I don't want html
in messages, but can find no way disable this in incoming
mail,
View->Message Body As->Plain Text will do this. Once set it seems to apply to all messages displayed.
Okay, I have now done this, but it still displays the reply '>' characters as pretty blue lines, and not plain text. Its doing something annoying to try and be clever. I don't like that.
and being able to set a default reply identity for folders, rather than having to set up loads of seperate identities with there own set of folders. KMail is much tidier to use for someone with multiple pop3 accounts. In my opinion anyway.
Yes that would be very useful. It is a pain to have to set up a separate account for each identity.
Yes, I don't have to do it in KMail, so KMail sounds like the best option so far.
Okay thanks, but it would still be better if it did that by
Oh yeah, its junk filtering is great. If it put suspect emails in a seperate folder by default, like gmail, then it would be even better.
Take a look at Tools->Junk Mail Controls there is a whole section on moving mails to folders. Filtering is also very useful for this.
Considering Outlook is so bad, it seems strange to me that projects would want to model themselves on it. I really can't think of an email client I've used that is as bad as Outlook. My opinion of course, but emulating Outlook is not what I'm looking for in a good email client.
What don't you like about Outlook?
Same two problems as Thunderbird plus dodgy attachment handling, bad security, no way to actually turn html off in messages even if you want to, poorly designed interface compared to KMail. Its been so long since I used it, I can't remember everything. I expect some of my problems are subjective, and if there is a niche for linux email clients that emulate the M$ way of doing things, then I suppose its not a terribly bad thing. Its just not what I am looking for.
