Couple months ago I came across ClawsMail which, at first,
seemed to actually be good enough to finally pull me away from

OE's
issues: lack of spellcheck, can't send unicode, proprietary
storage
format, certin NG postings only show up as blank posts with the
content
as an attachment, and some other smaller issues. Because of
that, I was
even willing put up with ClawsMail's use of that wretched GTK.
But aside from a few (umm, actually a LOT of) smaller quibbles
with
ClawsMail that I'd been willing to overlook, I'm now noticing
some
major flaws when typing a message:
1. Word wrap is a joke. Ie, it never
re-flows. Line lengths just keep shrinking as you edit. I
constantly have to rejoin partial lines of text. PITA.
2. Undo is *completely* broken. Period. Sometimes it works
right. And
then sometimes it just starts trampling random parts of your
text
*instead* of undoing whatever change you *just made*. Redo
doesn't
always seem reliable either.
Thunderbird's gone nowhere but downhill last number of
years, just like Firefox. And I'm not a fan of Opera, and
Win7's mail
program sucks.
Anyone know of a NG/email client, available on Win (preferably
cross
platform
- I do want to switch to Lin eventually) that isn't shit?
Not sure what your problem with Thunderbird is, I am still an
happy user of it.
At work, due to software restrictions I am forced to live with
Live Email, former Outlook Express for NG access.
