I, however, don't really need some all-in-one thing like MS Outlook. So, besides a short look, I have not used Evolution yet. As far as KMail goes, most users on my network are using it. As such, I've often seen it. When I wanted try it for my personal mail needs, however, it crashed as soon as I received mail after I had set up around 20 mail filters. Seems that's too much for KMail ;-) So, what I've basically been using for a long time and am still using today is mutt. It's not a GUI client, but once configured, I have not found a thing that gets me done with my mail any faster. For mail filtering, I use procmail, and as my mail editor I have vim installed. Seems to be a really well-working combination that I've really grown to like ;-) Greetings Nils -- Nils Holland <nils@daemon.tisys.org> Ti Systems - http://www.tisys.org Addicted to computing since 1987 High on FreeBSD since 1996 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
