Mulberry is perhaps the best of the lot, but it does not work perfectly. For instance Mulberry has the bad habit of locking up Windows XP. The last time that happened, an important unanswered email vanished from the server. And Mulberry's editing new email features are really unacceptable. Thunderbird has lots of glitz and glamor and name recognition, but it is several years behind the rest in features. Move back a couple of years and go through the whole cycle of new broken features and maybe fixes later? No, I don't think so. > Yesterday, for example, I had the old > bug of "cannot open message" again, when I clicked on a new message.
