Claws Mail
Claws Mail is a
powerful and full-featured mail client formerly called
Sylpheed-Claws. The appearance and interface are designed to
be familiar to new users coming
from other popular email clients, as well as experienced users. Almost
all commands are accessible with the keyboard.
The software is intended to be light-weight and it has a
similar interface to that of Sylpheed's.
It is also extensible using loadable plugins, which can
provide support
for additional features, such as other storage formats, feed reader,
calendar management, mail filtering, etc.
