I have used Claws, Kmail and TB. All three have a pleasant enough interface... perhaps Claws my preferred. I can't remember now if Kmail could have an external editor. Claws seem to handle imap folders differently to TB which i wasn't so keen on. TB is my preferred simply because of the ImportExportTools and the Walnut theme [i like the wooden looking dash on classic cars!!]. I think Claws can be set up for maildir which is better but i haven't learnt about that yet. I don't know what other folk do to archive emails they want to keep but with ImportExportTools it's easy. I use different machines and tend to use gmail as webmail. Then on my main PC at the end of the year i use TB and do a purge, and save selection to disk. Using ItsAllText helps me speed up email editing as i gather it is the etiquette these days to do bottom posting and trim. I'd say all three were a better bet than evolution and i prefer an app for a specific purpose rather than trying to do several badly. e.g. I'd rather use gvim as an editor rather than that large app beginning with 'E' with huge menus and an impregnable huge reference manual [and a not so friendly user group]. Vi/Vim/gvim has an excellent Cheat Sheet and lots of useful easy to read docs [and a friendly user group residing on googlegroups!]. james --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
