I used Thunderbird for quite a while and it was OK then it went south on me
for a while and wouldn't send an attachment.  I think it's OK now but when I
got my new box I went to Outlook which I don't like. You might give
Thunderbird a try.

Subject: [dba-Tech] E-Mail Client

Today is a sad day. My beloved Pegasus Mail, which I've used since '94
when I first got online, is no longer being developed :(

What is everyone else using? I'm not switching right away, but I would
like some options, other than Outlook and Outlook Express, neither of
which I like.

My needs from an e-mail client are not huge, but very, very specific.

1) It HAS to have excellent rules/filters capabilities. Pegasus has
the best AFAIC, and I need something that comes close. I've got in the
neighbourhood of 400 rules that are processed when I get new mail.

2) It HAS to have the ability to NOT run any sort of scripting in HTML mail

3) It HAS to be able to only display and send plain text, but the
ability view HTML mail If *I* choose.

4) It CANNOT use IE as the rendering engine for mail.

Not huge requirement, but very specific.

Any suggestions that I can look at?
