It's been awhile since I have used T-Bird, but it's a great client. I'm not
saying mutt is any better, just that for _me_ since using mutt, I haven't
cared for any other e-mail client. I've tried, but keeping coming back. 8-D
I agree Ron, that T-Bird and to some extent Slypheed-Claws, are good
examples of GUI e-mail clients that are probably best of breed. I left
T-Bird for good since it didn't have a proper reply to list function at
the time, (b4 3rd party extension was available). At the time I was a
regular reader/poster to this list and mutt just worked better out of the
box at the time for list e-mail. FWIU the developers have recently been
working on putting 'reply-to list' into T-Bird natively. Tis good, even if
it took this long.
