You will no doubt get a range of suggestions on this. I have tried most email apps for Linux and I have found that Ishmail takes some beating. Ishmail was originally a commercial app and is very sophisticated and polished. It is now under the GNU licence and is under active development. It is available from http://ishmail.sourceforge.net/ - it does need motif (or lesstif) to compile. Both are available free on the 'net. -- Phillip Deackes Using Storm Linux
