At the moment I'm using claws and it seems quite fine. It has it's
funnies (mostly just different behaviour from kmail actually) so I need
to rewire my brain a bit.
It wants to wait for me to manually expunge folders, and I haven't quite
figured out how to always get it to use the correct .sig (a few times
my work .sig got used on mailing lists where I always use gmail), but
claws has these two amazing features that make it a killer app for me:
- it will not ever compose html mail but does a decent job of display it
when received
- it actually sends, receives and stores mail (akonadi users will
appreciate how a mailer can get to make that insanely more complex
than it needs to be)
