Re: Thuderbird as an Evolution replacement ? (Evolution things...)

[Michael Klinosky <mpk2 enter net>]

Hello, Kim -
I used Evolution for a couple months, but it didn't have 3 features that
I required. So, I recently switched to Thunderbird; granted, there's no
calendar/to-do feature, but it definitely suits my needs.

I get about 300 emails/day, and have 10 maillist filters. Seems quick 
enough. I haven't collected enough mail to say how it is with large 
directories.

Thunderbird is really nice with that issue - by default, it won't load 
images unless the from: is in your address book!
