From Eric.
The review........
I should explain before I get started that I'm a Pegasus Mail nut
and therefore not the sort of person who should be let loose on this
list ;->
I am well aware that Netscape mail is one of the best mail systems
that's going around these days. So I won't try to say anything about
that :)
XF Mail seems to be one of the better mail systems that I have come
across. It has many features that are not available on other
mailers. Even Pegasus Mail for Windows. One of the more outstanding
features is that it encourages seamless integration of PGP into the
Linux X-windows environment. This is something of a shock at first.
I hadn't thought that point and click PGP was part of X-windows.
All of the other (many) features that are there have made me think
that MS windows is no longer needed for my own personal use.
However, it's a sad fact of life that I'm stuck with it.
XF Mail is only matched by K Mail which comes with the KDE desktop.
K Mail has a more sophisticated GUI. It isn't better than XF Mail,
however.
My only complaint about XF Mail is that it doesn't have an up to
date FAQ or Howto file on compiling PGP 5.0i which can be downloaded
from the international PGP page.
If anyone can point me towards the appropriate web site for info
about PGP and how a beginner can use the source code with XF Mail and
Linux it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks to everyone for their help :-)
