That directory is craziness. This is what they list for email software: http://directory.fsf.org/wiki/Category/Email-software
162 options, listed in alphabetical order with text-only descriptions, and you have to click on a link to see anything past Ba-. If I'm looking to break out of Gmail, I need several recommendations, with an emphasis on what they look like, how they work, and how painful I can expect my transition to be. I need articles, not directories. Generally speaking, while I appreciate the FSF and their legal work, I've come to expect very little from them in encouraging the development and proliferation of pleasant, usable free software.
