[LAU] OT: email clients

[Kazakore]

Hi all.

Sorry for the very much off-topic post but I have asked a couple of 
other places and from those tried some recommendations and decided I 
don't like them. On the whole you guys and gals seem to have similar 
sensibilities to me so hopefully can suggest a email client that I will 
agree with. Needs to run nicely in Threaded mode (including own, sent 
emails in the thread for normal, non-list conversations.)

Evolution, Thunderbird and Alpine are the ones I've tried. Instantly 
didn't like Evolution, tried Thunderbird for about the last week (and 
currently typing this in it) with the Conversations plugin and it almost 
works but there is a lot which is clunky and not quite right. Alpine I 
barely got set up, only managed to get it to sync my Inbox folder, none 
of the others, and it all of a sudden stopped even being willing to do that.

Considered trying kmail but it's a huge download for just an email 
client (I assume it takes most of the Kontact library/suite just not the 
other actual programs) and am currently on too poor a connection to feel 
it was worth trying on the off-chance (IE it wasn't actually recommended 
by anybody.)

Thanks and sorry for the noise. Dale :)
