I find it to be very user-friendly and Eudora-like (well, like Eudora was a few years back, maybe, before all the bells and whistles). XFmail is being converted over to use GTK (and being renamed "Archimedes") but that effort's not usable yet. Other decent X mail clients are Balsa (a GNOME mailer), Kmail (the KDE mailer), XCmail (using the Xclasses widget set). I've tried these, and for one reason or another, they irk me enough that I go back to XFMail. I think Dustin was trying out some variant of CSHTML-Mail, but I cant see how anyone would stand to put up with a mail program written in Perl, with some perl-widget-set-graphics module, and using an SQL database to store mail -- it gives me a headache just thinking about setting that up. "Aiieee! Too many dependencies!" I'm sure if you looked on Appwatch or Freshmeat, you could find a few *DOZEN* more :) They've got more mail clients than you can shake a stick at. ================================================ BRLUG - The Baton Rouge Linux User Group Visit http://www.brlug.net for more information.
