I have installed Thunderbird, and at first sight it is missing a lot of things I need like: . Routeing of incoming email to usenet-like folder (thus bypassing the main filed folder. . Multiple POP3 on one account. One can route to one folder from different accounts but a messy kludge. . Ability to filter addresses from fields other than listed. Currently I would have to add tags (like qlmailing) to illegitimate fields . regexps for filters . folders for selected email addresses linking to central filed emails. .... and many other minor things. I also see no mention of newsgroups, but it _must_ be there somewhere. Potentially the address book though is better if there is an extension to add selections and searchable labels. Turnpike limits to 500 in an email, so I have a two pass for the QL emailshot.
