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."

    Yeah. A few months back I was ready to just shut down my mail server. As a last ditch effort, I installed TMDA with the intent of shutting down mail completely if that didn't solve the problem. It appears to have done a good job for the moment but it's still just a stopgap measure, and spam is still consuming my network resources.

    I may end up whitelisting mail servers that are allowed to talk to mine and refusing connections from all others. That'd allow the 2 or 3 people who E-Mail me to get through and prevent the other 2 or 3 million from bothering me.

    yes, and isn't it wonderful?

    no screams of hatred, no upset stomaches from the disgusting lack of origionality from the "big guys"
    and a great amount of enjoyment as we see solutions and not just another bad song remade yet again with new clothing.
