I've been using Evolution for years and it seems to do a good job. It does support IMAP, HTML and encryption, though I don't use those features. You can download your messages from several POP accounts into the one inbox and you can create filter rules for sorting. I've got 30,000 messages in my inbox and there isn't really any noticeable performance issue. _______________________________________________ luv-main mailing list [email protected] http://lists.luv.asn.au/listinfo/luv-main
