I don't have email. I have Usenet.
Apr. 11th, 2006 10:02 amThunderbird is a very good email client, to be honest. It lacks some vital features, like email bouncing, and forget getting on Usenet. But right now, it's lacking a few things and has some bad choices. It uses mailbox-style (all mail in one file) instead of maildir (one mail per file). There's no bounce command (although there's an extention, and they're slowly integrating it). And there's no "remove this email after x days in this folder" feature.
Maildir is basically how C-News used to store Usenet feeds. Removing emails after X days is basically the same as expiring an article. And boucing emails is a client side issue, although it can be at the server side in some cases.
I should make a news client.
