From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

kmail...
it integrates well with, you know...
kde...
I tried KMail and Organizer for a few weeks, but they kept losing connection with Gmail. My calendar would get out of sync, and they only way to fix it was to reset the connection and redo all the appointments.
I'm sure it was user error, since I couldn't figure it out after spending a couple hours on it, so I just dropped back to webmail and not leaving the mail tab open all day.
I tried using KOrganize which had KMail and some other stuff integrated together and ended up feeling like it was a gigantic, archaic codebase just hanging on by a thread. It struggled a lot with Gmail and several times I deleted my whole mail profile to try to fix some strange bug.
If I recall, what did me in was that it would stop sending emails after running for a while. The fix had something to do with restarting Akonadi. It was really disappointing, because I love a good UI/Plasma integration.
I use Thunderbird now and ... eh. It's ok.
