I have a pretty complicated setup--multiple identities, even more IMAP mailboxes, mailing lists that I want to filter into separate folders and auto-purge, a Palm to sync with, etc. If you don't need all this, something simpler should work fine. However, if you need something complicated, I don't think anything can match Evolution 1.4--including Outlook Express, Outlook, and Eudora, and Thunderbird and kmail (and especially including Evolution 1.2). For example, it's the only one that handles filtering IMAP properly (the kmail people refuse to accept a patch to add this)--although the vfolders feature means you might not need to anyway. It's the only one that handles error conditions like mail servers that occasionally go down for hours on end, running out of disk space, incomplete Palm sync'ing, etc. properly. In short, it does everything I need, and it just works. Plus, even on the slowest machine I have (PPro 200), it's still (just barely) usable (at least with a light Gtk 2 theme, running under fvwm2). _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
