Hi all,
At present I am running all my email through my windows box, but I am looking for suggestions on a "good" accessible email program on debian.
I am using Speakup and brltty. I am working strictly from the console, so thunderbird is not a n option.
I need to be able to do email filtering because I am on a lot of email lists and want the messages filtered by list into separate folders.
What other pieces do I need to make such a setup work well?

It will do multiple POP and IMAP mail accounts, RSS feeds and NNTP.

I'm also a gnus fan. It has a bit of a learning curve, but it is quite capable. I used to really love nmh, which is a suite of tools for mail handling. Instead of working inside a monolithic email program, the nmh user manipulates their email using various small shell commands. It's a totally different paradigm. Unfortunately, it doesn't play all that well with typical modern mail configurations. For instance, I keep my mail on a VPS, and I read it with IMAP, rather than pulling it down to my local machine. If you're willing to read mail from the shell on your mail server, or you're willing to pull it down to the local machine using getmail or fetchmail, then nmh works beautifully. -- Chris ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 11+ messages in thread

I'm in that category; I should perhaps install nmh at some point. The new tool which is starting to attract attention in the Linux community is NotMuch (http://www.notmuchmail.org/). ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 11+ messages in thread

I have used nmh for the last 20 years, and loveit! Not only does it give you a suite of small shell commands to work with, but it stores messages in individual files with in a Mail folder in your home directory. That means you can use other utilities on the system to help manipulate mail. It's also expensible, so you can write other shell commands, or even programs in c or python. I used to use fetchmail to get my mail from my isp's server, but something they changed broke it, so it could no longer authorize itself, and thus, couldn't get mail. So, I switched over to something called mpop, and call it from a script running as a back ground job. That works quite well, and has the nice advantage of lettingme play a newmail sound, when ever it detects mail on the server.

I also use gnus for news, but the emacs interrface with mmh is so much nicer than using gnus to read Email, that I have a combined arrangement. I am using sendmail as my mta.

We use mutt around here. We just keep all our mails in a folder in each of our accounts. We have no gui on here neither. We do not want one. We are waiting for clifox to be the ultimate completion of our pure cli system. We use mutt and it does what we need.
