I'm not one of the developers and this is a totally unprompted recommendation, but, if you haven't tried it, I can't say enough good things about the Claws Mail client. It's an extended version of Sylpheed, I think, and is the only graphical (Gtk) mail program I've found that comes anywhere near to Mutt.
Unlike Evolution, it does only one thing, but it does that one thing--mail handling--very, very well indeed. Plugins are available to handle PGP in all its various permutations; to read PDFs inline; there's even a Perl plugin that allows you to script actions that can't be configured natively, though what those may be I can't imagine.
If you're looking for a mail client that can chew through a large number of mailing lists, do check it out: threaded indexing (à la Mutt), handles quote levels in contrasting colors (like Mutt), and is set up for easy pre- and post-processing of mails. It's also fast--much faster than Evolution. (I have to admit that even as a Nat and Miguel fanboi.)
I still use Mutt to read mail on the server, but when I'm on my Fedora box, Claws Mail is just so good I just had to share.
(Be sure to get the claws-mail-plugins RPM if you try it out.)
JLWhat about a "go to next unread thread" feature (=mark all the mails as read in a given thread and jump to the next unread thread, to the first unread mail of it)?
Thanks in advance for any info,
Either: ignore thread, then goto next unread msg (2 hotkeys) or select thread, mark as read, then goto next unread msg (3)
There's no single hotkey for what you want.
Both ways are now activated, thank you, Z.
