[pmmail-list] thunderbird?

[Dean Boulding]

Likewise, I have moved both at home and at work, largely for the HTML -- 
I need to be able to read messages from clients.  I miss a lot of little 
things from PMMail, but TBird is under active development (a new beta 
every month or two, and nightly builds for the adventurous) and very 
stable.  It has a built-in junk filter, but this is nowhere near as good 
as I can get from POPFile.

If I could somehow pick and choose features from both, I would be in 
email heaven.

Cheers,

Dean
