If we don't provide a satisfactory answer we lose a customer.
I think there could be a middle ground. If we can have a label saying:
"looking for a PIM environment?"
then link to different options like:
- KPIM (now runs on windows and OSX)
- Zimbra Desktop (runs on all 3)
- Thunderbird (runs on all 3)
Linux:
- Evolution
- SpiceBird (beta)
Different types of email requirements require different types of email
clients:
* Evolution works for some individuals, and organizations. It does
not work for other individuals, and organizations;
* Thunderbird works for some individuals, and organizations. It does
not work for other individuals, and organizations;
* The same can be said for the other FLOSS email clients;
* The same can be said of the non-FLOSS email clients;
Bundling Evolution, Thunderbird, Penelope, or Alpine is not going to
satisfy everybody's needs.
