Hi, Well, if we continue this way, we can remove all program except the browser and become a Chrome OS :)
But for the email client, using only the web UI mean you have constantly a good Internet connexion, you can't do anything offline. Personally, I alway use a local client, I never find the web UI very good to use daily. Also, the gain to remove sylpheed is about 5Mo unpacked, so only a bit less than 2Mo on the ISO. About the choice sylpheed vs claws-mail, the 2 seems good. Memory usage seems quite the same, main functionality are here, development seems active (a bit more maybe on claws side). Main difference so far is the multi-threading of sylpheed, mean you can close it when he's trying to synchronize an IMAP folder. Regarding the popularity, Claws is more used on Debian than sylpheed. So +1 for both for me :D Regards, Julien Lavergne Le dimanche 03 janvier 2010 à 17:08 +0700, Mario Behling a écrit : > Hi, > > I was also thinking a few days ago about the need for inclusion of a > mail client.

For now, we used sylpheed. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
