I've used Thunderbird for years, and still do. I love it.
IMAP, 30GB account, contacts and calendar synced with our Nextcloud server. Can search for a term and receive a list of emails going back years instantly.
I can open Thunderbird, search for an email from 2016, and be replying to it faster than my wife's identical PC can even finish loading the Outlook splash screen (may contain traces of hyperbole).
Huh good to know. Thanks for the details!
Holy shit. I just googled Thunderbird and it is looking sleek AF.
I couldn't use it in the past at work since they only supported "modern" auth methods and no IMAP/pop3.
Firefox didn't support it back then and I was stuck with evolution. Which isn't bad functionally. It just still looks like it was designed in the 90s.
I'm not using any email client privately atm. But it's nice to see the UI also got some love.
I've recently set up Mutt with Fetchmail and Procmail. Getting mail over IMAP (with keeping those on server), putting it into one mailbox, archiving read, segmented by year and zstd-compressed, with macros for switching between outgoing SMTP accounts.
Takes little space, works fast and is very convenient once set up.
It's a very different taste from what you are describing, though.
