Next Generation Mail Clients Reviewed
kreide writes "E-mail is the 'killer app' of the Internet; an enormous number of messages are exchanged every day, and while web-based mail has become very popular in recent years, many people still prefer the added speed and flexibility of a mail client application. In this review I compare the next generation of the most popular e-mail clients, including Evolution, KMail, Opera and Mozilla, and their usability in dealing with large number of messages."
I'm touching on Britney, Beyonce and Michelle right now!
Oh, wait... That's me.

Welcome to Slashdot! Let me show you around...
Some folks might think that receiving 100 spams a day is the "killer" part of the app.
I'm not tense. I'm just terribly, terribly, alert.
From the article: ...
"A big part of Thunderbird is the support for themes and extensions."
"Weather can show local weather conditions. "
Excellent! That is EXACTLY why I use a certain email client...so I can find out the weather.
I also use my toaster to heat my house, my TV to light up my living room, my toilet to wash my dishes, and my fridge to air-condition my house.
C'mon people...can't we get a good SIMPLE client instead of one with everything and the kitchen sink.
TDz.
it is pretty nice, why did it not get reviewed? Is this site biased or something?
;-)
You must be new around here...

nope. the keyword "music" would automatically deter britney, JT, beyonce, michelle and christina from review.
Excellent idea. I would love to bring Britney and Michelle over to try out some touching. I could even write a review about it on slashdot :)

No, it's much more like reviewing the state of music without touching on...
Isn't the central idea of solitaire that it is played by oneself?

I should be so lucky.
FreeBSD for the impatient.
>> it(email) is the killer app
;-)
no doubt! email _is_ the killer app. just look at how many computers outlook has killed with viruses, worms, trojans, and spam.
outlook's rap sheet is to the floor...
This is funny to me. I consider myself a "regular" computer/Internet user. I don't see the need to download 2100 messages as part of my "daily tasks".

I find all this focus on easy-of-use and simplicity boring. I hate it whem computers become so simple that my grandmother can use them.
I prefer Linux on the server and Windows and Office on the desktop. It has nothing to do with politics, cost, freedom or anything else. It has to do with what I am comfortable using.
:)
It has to do with you never having used a Mac!

How 20th century of you. Don't you know all the Mom's are now hooked on MMOS (Massively Multiplayer Online Solitaire)?
This is not the greatest sig in the world, this is just a tribute.
Not sure what you mean. I use Outlook at work and Outlook 2003 allows you to send your email as HTML. You can also use Word as your editor, which should certainly allow you to compose in HTML. Am I misunderstanding your question?

You call that music?
This, along with the PENIS ENLARGEMENT SPAM they used in the screenshots, makes for a very unprofessional review.

What can you write in fancy-schmancy assembler that I cannot write by hitting switches and pushing buttons on the front panel of my Altair?
Keyboard/CRT users are such wussies! Real men read data from front-panel LEDs!
I hate it when computers become so simple that people who type can use them. Damned new-fangled feeb-boxes with keyboards and video monitors!
So what? Imap lets you use as many clients as you want - including a Webmail client for when you're out of the office..
The mac zealots are the easiest to smell...
Hey, the author knows his stuff. Didn't you see his other review where he showed Linux's 2.6 kernal blows DOS 3.0 out of the water in multitasking ability?
It's as close as it can get to Clippy heling write a suicide note.
... other than the fact that you don't have to leave Emacs.
Is something else out there?
M-x get-a-life didn't work for me...
Everything they hear about it comes from maroons like this author.
Fucking maroons! I hate them with their not quite red, not quite purple kind of look...
