Claws Mail: What an email client SHOULD be like
,----[ Quote ]
| Recently, I did a series of articles covering the Claws Mail email client.
| When I first started writing them, I figured it would be another one of those
| applications I would use during the writing and then I would put it away and
| go back to my usual Thunderbird. I was surprised to find out, after I had
| completed the series, that I didn’t want to go back to Thunderbird. I had
| found an email client that made Thunderbird look weak, slow, inflexible, and
| unreliable. In its place was a powerful, flexible, fast, reliable email
| client that epitomizes what good software should be: Powerful enough to
| entice power-users, yet easy enough for newbies.

Skrooge: Personal finance management +1
,----[ Quote ]
| I ran out of money last month quite early (in NL you usually get paid once a
| month) and I did not understand why. Since Skrooge got imported last month in
| KDE SVN, I wondered if that could help me determine why. As usual with
| financial applications I did not get my hopes up very high. Normally they
| just don't do what I want, that's why I wrote my own application for my
| Office 9 years ago in php/mysql. But to use that for my personal finances was
| not a very tempting outlook.

An overview of FLOSS email clients
,----[ Quote ]
| Everybody uses email as one of its primary communication means; Free Software
| desktop users are no exception. In this regard, email clients play a central
| role in the way we work and generally live in the Internet. These last years
| have seen some relative decline in the usage of email clients. The use of
| standard, more mature web technologies such as Ajax have made the online
| service of email providers much more attractive, while the justified
| criticism of "everyone's " email client, Outlook Express drove many to use
| the simple online interfaces of some major email service providers.
