Hi,

Today just to try mahogany I downloaded mahogany.deb file, since rpm file was not 
available on the site thinking that using alien I will be able to convert this deb 
file to rpm format.

But  when I try to run alien I get the following error and the rpm file is not created 
:

-------------------------------------------------------------

suselinux:/home/rajesh/tmp # alien -r mahogany_0.60_i386.deb 
-- Examining mahogany_0.60_i386.deb
tar: control: Not found in archive
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
-- Unpacking mahogany_0.60_i386.deb
-- Automatic spec file generation
-- Building the package --2.i386.rpm
--2.spec: unknown option
alien: Error putting together the RPM package.

-------------------------------------------------------------

Can anybody help me out on this ? Suresh Mahogany was your suggestion :-)

Spruce suggested by Arun is also good GTK based email client. Only drawback is that it 
does not support local delivery ( say sendmail ). You have the option of sending the 
mail directly to smtp server.

Thanks in advance.
