Mailinglist Archive: opensuse (1982 mails)

[Jerry Houston <Jerry@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Well, not exactly first ... I've been using it for more than a week now.  It's 
completely replaced Thunderbird for me on my Linux machines.  (And that's 
saying a lot, because I've been an enthusiastic Thunderbird user on Windows 
and Linux for years.)  

I've been told that KMail will even be available for Windows eventually, 
although it's apparently not a high priority for KDE right now.

Kmail just does things more intuitively, or does them better.  Its message 
editor doesn't insert or remove newlines at random.  It's easier to create 
message filters.  Folders can be individually set up to allow HTML and to 
download images, where appropriate.  Or not.  It doesn't tell me every day 
that the weather report from my local TV station is junk, despite my telling 
it every day that it's not junk.

I could list another few dozen examples, but I'll keep this message short.  If 
you've ever had to learn to live with *any* annoying problems with your email 
client, give KDE4 KMail a try.  I'm betting you'll become a devoted user in no 
time at all.

Community support is great, too.  While making the transition from 
Thunderbird, I've asked a few questions on the KDE mailing list.  (There were 
some option settings that I knew had to be available, but I wasn't sure where 
to look for them.)  When I've done that, I've never waited more than 10 
minutes for a helpful answer.
