    Evolution, I wish I could use Thunderbird, but that crashes when signing mails with my Yubikey.

    I use Thunderbird if I’m using Plasma and Geary if I’m using Gnome

    I’ve just moved to Thunderbird. I was never keen on the old design and found it rather clunky but the new UI I find much better.

    I was using Mailspring but it has recently just refused to work on my device and I never even got a response on the community forums so I’ve just given up on it.

    I used to have lieer’s gmi (read: mbsync with gmail tag syncing) paired with notmuch. It’s good when it works, but it’s annoying to need a service in the background.

    I used to use Gnus, but Gnus is sometimes weirds out if your tag filters are too complex for it

    I use Mailspring. The only thing missing from Mailspring for me is seeing what folders my emails are in when I run a search. Otherwise, it’s the only non-CLI client I’ve found that let’s me use the keyboard to select multiple emails and move them to a folder, something I do in Gmail.

    If anyone knows of others, let me know! I’ve tried Claws, Evolution, Geary, KMail, and Thunderbird in addition to Mutt and aerc in hopes of finding something to replace Gmail.

    Thunderbird’s not bad, but I usually use web stuff.

    I have an existing iCloud e-mail that I haven’t had the time to switch off of. I then use G-Mail for school stuff - since I’ve signed away my soul to Google anyway, might as well use what they have to offer.

    Maybe one day, I’ll start my own personal e-mail utopia, nut that day is not today.

      I tried Betterbird, but had no end of certificate errors and trouble. Went back to tbird and all good again.

        I had the opposite for some reason! Thunderbird started giving lots of weird errors, especially with Gmail, but Betterbird worked fine so I just ended up switching over.

      Does Thunderbird have unified inbox? And how well does it deal with Exchange? Just do imap mode?

        EAS is not implemented so imap and pop3 only. But i heard they currently work on EAS and should be arriving in the near future.

        For EAS there is also a paid plugin Owl i think.
