At the moment I'm using claws and it seems quite fine. It has it's funnies (mostly just different behaviour from kmail actually) so I need to rewire my brain a bit. It wants to wait for me to manually expunge folders, and I haven't quite figured out how to always get it to use the correct .sig (a few times my work .sig got used on mailing lists where I always use gmail), but claws has these two amazing features that make it a killer app for me: - it will not ever compose html mail but does a decent job of display it when received - it actually sends, receives and stores mail (akonadi users will appreciate how a mailer can get to make that insanely more complex than it needs to be) -- Alan McKinnnon alan.mckin...@gmail.com
