Right now, I'm using KMail belonging to the KDE2 package despite running KDE1. It works fine, almost as good as Netscape Messenger in Windoze. I miss the possibility of sending BCC's. Kmail might be THE project you are asking for. For those who are OE fans, of course, it might be a good idea to establish a project of making an LX-OE.
In general many refrain from turning to Linux, because Linux doesn't have IE and OE. IMHO, the browser issue is bundled with the mail client issue. Netscape seems to be incapacitated regarding producing obedient code. The browser works fine until Messenger is set up. After that it's useless on a machine with a dial up connection charged per minute.
I agree that Kmail might be THE project. Kmail for KDE 2.0 seems to have much - although not quite all of - the polish in Outlook. When bundled with the rest of the KDE suite, it's quite nice. If they were to add a Outlook Today like screen that took data from both Kmail and KOrganizer, it would be nearly perfect. It might not be quite there yet - but it certainly does seem to be the e-mail client that would most likely be equal to a Windows/Mac client. -Tim ----------------------------------------------------------------- Timothy R.
