Re: Thunderbird sucking

Yeah flamewars!
And, of course, vim is the only way to edit your mail.

I'm not quite sure what you mean by "role support"; mutt gives me
reply-to-sender, reply-to-group (everybody who got the message),
reply-to-list, and a whole bunch of other things that I never use...if pine
did that, I could never figure out how.

Also, IMAP support that makes sense. This is a big selling point for me.
