Hey, heard Sylpeed-claws got mentioned in another thread and I
thought I used it long ago before it's gone GPL. At that time
it was still a baby and hard to tell how good it was. Does
anyone use it recently and is it any good?
How does it compared to ThunderBird, for example.

I thought the learning curve was a bit steep on earlier versions.

JMHO.

Did you hear the one about the dyslexic, agnostic, insomniac?

If you're into HTML email, forget about Claws. They've categorically stated
that HTML will NEVER be a part of the supported feature-set...

I'd stick with TB as its evolution is taking place at a far faster pace than
Claws. Also TB extensions are continuously being added/updated to improve
its performance.

It is a good thing to follow the first law of holes; if you are in one stop
digging.
