Kieth Posted January 21, 2003 Report Share Posted January 21, 2003 I read through all of the posts hear, but I still have a question. What are the e-mail clients that can use html well? I am now using evolution, but I would like a lighter client. Thanks, Kieth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronin Posted January 22, 2003 Report Share Posted January 22, 2003 knode handles html as I recall. Opps, I blame the beer.I meant kmail, heck I just about typed knode again. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bvc Posted January 22, 2003 Report Share Posted January 22, 2003 Doesn't knode only recieve emails? kmail does html, but my wife kept giving =20's throughout her sent messages, so now she's using evolution. Balsa2 supposedley does but I don't know to what extent. I compile it from source and had too many probs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul Posted January 22, 2003 Report Share Posted January 22, 2003 sylpheed ... is fast than kmail, but has far less features Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beesea Posted January 22, 2003 Report Share Posted January 22, 2003 yeah, sylpheed's really fast. but i think Kieth is looking for something that handles html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul Posted January 22, 2003 Report Share Posted January 22, 2003 aahh ... you're right I thought sylpheed did do html ... but further investigation reveals the truth .... It doesn't Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theYinYeti Posted January 22, 2003 Report Share Posted January 22, 2003 And Sylpheed never will. They say it on their home page. Sadly, I only know Evolution and Mozilla that handle HTML mails well (in reading and writing). They aren't light. There are a handfull email clients which handle reading HTML mails, but not writing. I don't remember which because I have to be able to do HTML-mail writing. Finally, there's ONE light e-mail client that does reading and writing in better-than-text format, but if I remember correctly, it is RTF, not HTML: it is IshMail. Yves.

ramfree17 Posted January 22, 2003 Report Share Posted January 22, 2003 i think theres a patch to let handle html messages (relatively speaking). if you are looking for something that looks like outlook when it comes to embedding images and such then sylpheed is definitely out of the race. :( but i still use sylpheed (when im in linux). ciao!

Kieth Posted January 23, 2003 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2003 Thanks for the advice. I'm trying out Balsa2 now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
