Sylpheed
Sylpheed is a simple,
lightweight and featureful e-mail client based on the GTK+ GUI toolkit.
It aims to combine a quick and responsive client, with a sophisticated
interface, intuitive operation, as well as an abundant feature set.
Sylpheed uses a 3-paned display similar to the popular e-mail
clients
for Windows such as Outlook Express and Becky. Many commands are
accessible with the keyboard like the Emacs-based mailers such as Mew
and Wanderlust. This enables users to easily migrate to
Sylpheed.
It stores mail in the MH Message Handling System.
It supports the following protocols: POP3, IMAP4rev1, SMTP,
NNTP,
SSL/TLSv1 (POP3, SMTP, IMAP4rev1, NNTP), IPv6.
