Outlook express is evil.
It actually appears to work correctly for IMAP, and is reasonably fast,
but...
1. For some unknown reason it doesn't let you use mail filters on IMAP
messages, thereby rendering it completely unsuited to my needs
2. And this is the really evil one. If you use plain text mode it ALWAYS
uses your proportional font for displaying and composing mail. If you use
HTML mode it will let you work in fixed width, but obviously then sends the
message as multi-part mime HTML mail, which is unacceptable.
So, I have:
Netscape - works, can filter mail, poor interface, dreadfully slow
PC-pine - works, can filter mail, dreadful interface, fast
Eudora - annoying bugs, can filter mail, good interface, slow
Express - works, can't filter mail, good interface, quite fast
So, Eudora still ahead...
