    Poll: What is Your Principal E-mail Client?

    Linux offers an enormous selection of e-mail clients. Which ones are people using, and how often? For this poll, check the e-mail client you use most often.

    I have included two options for people who do not use a Linux client for e-mail. "Web mail" is for those who use a service such as hotmail and keep no mail on their own system. "non-Linux" is for those who retrieve their e-mail while running one of those commercial operating systems.

    I voted Thunderbird because that's what I usually run in the lightweight DEs/WMs like XFCE4, Openbox, and Pekwm, but when I'm using KDE, I use Kmail.

    I use Thunderbird for my personal website mail, but otherwise I use webmail for my gmail account.

    Yup. But this one does have more clients... though it's still missing mine (sort of): sylpheed claws.

    I've found Sylpheed to be far too buggy for every day use.

    Hmm... actually, it has happened once or twice that Sylpheed claws crashed for no apparent reason. But i've gotten so used to it... plus, it's quick. I used thunderbird for a long time, but it got really slow when I had a ton of mail. I'm thinking of trying out Evolution, mainly because of the calendar/scheduler features.
