Recommendations for email programs

1 points by OpenWebU 18y ago ↗ HN

i'm using godaddy email and it is -- well -- horrible. i was thinking of going to gmail because i really like the search and tagging functionality, and speed. (btw, i left yahoo mail -- way too slow). but, on techcrunch today, people really downed gmail. does anyone have suggestions for a useful alternative?

I can highly recommend Thunderbird. It's open source and I've been running it solidly for a number of years now.

Thundbird used to have a lot of problems coping with voluminous email accounts. A volume of 50 emails a day quickly became unmanageable. Or at the very least it was a case a couple of years ago.
