What’s everyone’s preferred email client these days?
- GUI: Thunderbird
- Terminal: neomutt
- Android: K-9 (soon to be Thunderbird)
Fairemail
I only use K9 on Android. Everything else, web-based.
Using Evolution for desktop but about to give Thunderbird another shot I think.
Evolution here. I will likely never go back to Thunderbird.
Same - Evolution offers one thing Firebird dosen’t - connecting to the work cloud Microsoft account!
If only they’d change the dumb way date time entry works for the calendar it would be near perfect.
Try gnome-calender as a evolution-data-server frontend.
Thunderbird
They all fucking suck
I personally use Claws Mail.
Thunderbird is the best IMO. Mailspring is also pretty good.
Great, a subscription based mail program. Because that’s clearly what people want and need, paying rent for the software on their machines.
Nothing about the program itself is subscription based. All of the normal features of an email client (that you would also find in Thunderbird) are available for free. You only need to pay if you want to use their services like Send later, read receipts or link tracking, because these requires backend servers and actually costs the money.
Evolution currently. Previously Thunderbird. I wouldn’t mind a newer client but I am only interested in native apps talking to my email server over open standards.
Sylpheed is the best. I thought everyone knew this.
That’s a name I haven’t seen in a while.
I like Evolution. Has email, contacts, calendar, and todos all in one. And pgp support out of the box.
mail(1)ornedmail(1)is all I really need.I prefer
mutt/neomutt, but Thunderbird comes by default in basically every desktop-oriented distro I regularly interact with, so I end up using that most often on *nix. K-9 if I want it on my phone.My true love is the combination of
acme(1)andfaces(1), but that doesn’t do encryption/PGP stuff.I like neomutt and kmail.
I’m not a big email user, tried some of the clients multiple times and always return to web.
I use Mailspring. The only thing missing from Mailspring for me is seeing what folders my emails are in when I run a search. Otherwise, it’s the only non-CLI client I’ve found that let’s me use the keyboard to select multiple emails and move them to a folder, something I do in Gmail.
If anyone knows of others, let me know! I’ve tried Claws, Evolution, Geary, KMail, and Thunderbird in addition to Mutt and aerc in hopes of finding something to replace Gmail.
Tuta (used to be called Tutanota), web and Android clients).
Because F++k Google.
I’ve tried basically everything under the sun, and keep returning to Thunderbird. Thankfully they’ve fixed the endless amount of performance issues with it.
Everything else is either in a horrible state, abandoned, or paid spyware that used to be a free project originally
I had the same experience.
Agreed
