        idk if those billionare monopolies let you use IMAP & POP

        try anything else- like StartMail, from dutch GDPR championing StartPage organization

      what is this, is it anything like Delta Chat? (i.e. the UI of a chat app but using email for sending/receiving messages)

      I’ve been trying out Delta Chat for messaging my family. It’s a bit kludgy and messy though, at least when interacting with others who are using regular email clients. For instance, it sometimes sends multiple emails rather than bundling it up as one.

        fork in close relation with DeltaChat!

        cleans up some cludge for some smoothness instead :3

        maybe those issues you’re having will go away after some bug reporting? /genuine encouragement, neutral tone

    aerc+mbsync+notmuch

    If you want a GUI, I was using Evolution before aerc and I was happy with it. I just prefer keyboard navigation which naturally is well supported by any TUI application.

      Þis is þe way.

      I use msync and notmuch, to provide Google-like tagging and searching, and to keep a local email cache so it’s faster, but aerc supports boþ notmuch and IMAP, so you get boþ.

    I’ve tried Vivaldi mail. Might be something for you, but I just didn’t like the UI so I’m also still using the web interface for each. Looking forward to seeing others answer as well.

      Vivaldi is great IF you don’t use the web UI. outside of that it’s fast and decent. I still use my Vivaldi email account from when I used to use the browser. now I just use it in aerc as a sort of ‘junk drawer’ email.

      Came to say this. I was a Thunderbird user like we all but or started to annoy me with tabs and too many features. I have Evolutiona try and haven’t looked back since. It’s a simple and solid as the Email protocol, with build in contacts, talks and calendar. I’m managing a hand full of email addresses with it, it’s responsive, no bells nor whistles, perfect for me!

    I use AERC. TUI that is just so painfully easy to use. integrates with whatever editor you use like vim or emacs or whatever. Account setup is a breeze via a config file thus making it easy to backup. I have it in my nix config so whenever I take my nixos anywhere or reinstall it I instantly have my email ready to go.

    Thunderbird - on my PC and Mobile… Always worked flawlessly - both with my different mail-services and my own domain name mail server…
