I've used Roundcube for years and finally got fed up with it breaking on every update because of the plugin system. Are there better options around?

I’m back to Mail clients. Webmail is a compromise that didn’t work out for me well.

I use Gmail at work because I have to. It’s good for it’s company integration, but privately no thanks.

Same for me. I'm a die-hard Thunderbird fan (it's ugly but it works lol).

Used to use TB at work until we switched to Google Workspace and they globally disabled IMAP access. Now I'm stuck with webmail and my productivity went to absolute shit.

Have you updated to the new version 115? The UI has had a bit of an overhaul and looks more modern.

[–] ptz@dubvee.org 4 points 3 years ago (1 children)

I haven't but I definitely should. Just refreshed my laptop with pop os and have been using the default mail client with it (Geary?). It is really responsive and works well with the tiling plugin.

I always liked Geary, but stuck with evolution for the EWS support my jobs have always required.

Update is still unavailable on a fair number of distributions, nor on flathub (stable release).

It is nice though. Much prefer cards if I have the preview pane enabled.

Yeah, I mostly use Thunderbird and FairEmail but it's nice to have a backup when I'm in places I can't use those, or can't be bothered setting up a new client.
