Outlook Express all the way.


Just kidding! What's wrong with good ole' Mutt or Pine? Why have a much slower GUI mail client when a nice, simple, intuitive CLI one works and is as free of bugs as makes any difference? :-)[/b]

I use IMAP, so I can switch at will.

I've been running mutt for about six months, but now I'm giving KMail a spin. It looks pretty ok so far.

What some people need to understand is that there are a growing number of people who want to have a clean GUI environment. I know I used to like console a whole lot, but I've found myself wanting everything to be windowed for ease of use and other reasons. Remembering keystrokes gets old...

Yeah leaving mutt, elm and pine out of the list is kind of lame. They have to be more popular than most of those other clients you listed. Pine for me.
