Email clients

So, dusted off this not too old article - Email Clients[^] I suppose if other people paid my bills, I would not care. So, other than Outlook, what are you using these days for email clients?

I'm using Microsoft Mail on my PC, but refuse to upgrade to Outlook due to the ads. I tried upgrading but the number of times I accidentally clicked an add thinking it was an email was beyond irritating. Windows is becoming adware. Office Outlook stopped working for me a couple of years ago. Constant locking up and crashing. I should wipe and reinstall but in the end I just thought "why bother"? macOS/iOS email client on my apple devices, web email everywhere else. I'm still pining the loss of Eudora.

I use whatever's the latest free Outlook client for Windows 10. Which is much better than its previous built-in client, but that's still not saying much. Then once every two months or so I'll fire up the "larger" Outlook client (from Office) that I have running on another machine and clean up my inbox with it - meaning, what hasn't already been deleted will get moved to that machine's offline PST. Which means, my multi-decades worth of conversations is archived locally, where it belongs, and not onto somebody else's mail server.

Agree, but I connect to it with Thunderbird, using the mail bridge.

I hate outlook because it keeps marking my read emails as unread. I've been using the default windows mail client, which works well enough except when it comes to displaying HTML content in calendar entries (i have to switch to outlook or my web mail to click the links in them. Unfortunately Windows is retiring it and forcing outlook on people, so i'm in the market for a new client. I'd like it to be lightweight unobtrusive, and seamlessly integrate with windows, notifications and such. Meh.

Thunderbird... Ever since OutlookExpress was unsupported (Win8 ?). Just wish the calendar add-in was a bit [lot] more functional.

I made the switch to protonmail about 4 years ago during this time I have only had one unknown email I buy some woodworking tools from Banggood in China and just created a non linked additional PM account they have never spammed me and if that happens I just delete the PM account I am using the FREE version but I am sure the benefits of the other plans are worth the price You can sync your old email accounts with ease

I use Thunderbird. Actually Seamonkey browser/email suite but it's the same thing really.

I used to use Eudora, great client, good spam filtering & quick. Then Qualcomm made it freeware & then I couldn't get it to install on Win10 so went to Thunderbird.

This is the one I settled on. But I paid for it, the free client will only allow 2 accounts. I have 6 or 8 and it does everything Thunderbird would do only faster. Also the calendar integration is great.
Jack of all trades, master of none, though often times better than master of one.

try protonmail https://proton.me/mail[^] especially if you value your privacy. They have apps for IOS, Android, Windows and I believe Linux. One thing I should add, Proton and their suite of apps: mail, calendar, vpn, password manager and cloud storage are all built by scientists and engineers at CERN. I like to know who is behind a company before using their products, and Proton are very upfront about who is running their company. https://proton.me/about[^]

At work Outlook 365. At home Outlook connected to german GMX in one PC (for the archive), GMX web interface in the other PCs. I got a Protonmail account too for testing and doing some staff, and it got deleted due to inactivity because I forgot about it too often. A couple of throw-away emails providers for online services I do not trust.
M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.
