Friendly reminder that Thunderbird is a great way to handle multiple email accounts on the desktop.
There are no perfect desktop email clients, but Thunderbird is pretty great.
It's a little too powerful for my needs, so I stick to Claws.
I moved away from a desktop client for several years because of Thunderbird staying stuck in the 2010s, but the redesign brought me back into the fold. It's certainly overkill for scanning through subject lines, but compared to having five tabs open ...
Bluemail is decent. But im still always looking for better.
Mailspring is pretty cool :)
Mailspring doesn't handle folders well. When I was testing it, it synced my inbox fine, but none of the folders worked. I even set up a dev environment to try and fix it myself, but couldn't get things working properly.
Correct me if I'm wrong, I very well might be, but doesn't Bluemail do the same thing as the new Outlook for their "instant push" feature? I don't see how else they'd accomplish that.
Ain't that the truth.
Geary is so close to perfect but they depend on Gnome Online accounts which doesn't support O365 so I can use it for everything but my university email.
But Thunderbird still doesn't support outlook calendar etc right?
It does support any good calendar using CalDav standard.
I must say I'm quite pleased with it too. The previous time I tried it was in 2005 and it was just ok. I also recently found out about the Owl add-on. Really makes it a good alternative
I hate how they use quotes around the name Thunderbird...
It can even look great with the Monterail Dark 2 Add-On.
(For some reason I had to download it and then install it from the downloaded file, but it DOES work!)
Also available in a Full Dark mode version
