Next Generation Mail Clients Reviewed

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the kmail-rules dept.

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."

    it is pretty nice, why did it not get reviewed? Is this site biased or something?

  2. Outlook by ifreakshow · · Score: 1, Redundant

    I'm not a microsoft support but I think it is a little remiss not to include the next generation of Outlook in your review. It seems to be the "most popular" client everywhere I've ever worked.

  3. No Outlook 2003? by orangenormal · · Score: 1, Redundant

    At the risk of being unpopular (gulps), I have to put in my say for the new Outlook. I'm surprised Outlook 2003 wasn't included in the review, since it offers significant enhancements over the version in the article. The concept of "search folders" and being able to flag messages for follow-up in many colours is, simply put, invaluable. Mozilla mail doesn't even come close--although it should.
