I like the simplicity of thunderbird too, but what really got me is the spam filter, it is the best in the world. Why? Because you tell it what is spam and what is not spam.

I definitely prefer Thunderbird. I used Kmail for a long time prior to that, until I discovered the junk mail controls in Thunderbird. That and it's simple to setup/use.

Evolution because: I can backup my mail to a .pst type file (unlike Thunderbird), it looks pretty (much better than the old Evolution under Red Hat 9), I can download mail & still keep it on my email server (POP), I can use POP and IMAP, I also use Outlook2000, so it has the same look & feel of Outlook, I use web-based Yahoo Mail as my spam catcher and because I use fastmail as my "real" email account.

I use Thunderbird as my main e-mail client, as I am using IMAP and then have more or less the same client for my three platforms MacOS X, Windows and Linux.

I use Gmail and Evolution. Gmail seems to do a great job filtering spam so my email is pretty clean by the time it gets to Evolution. The main reason I use Evolution is because it includes a calendar, to do list, etc. that I can sync with my Palm Pilot.

Thunderbird - It does exactly what i want it to do. I also like the integrated e-mail program that comes with Opera.

I use Evolution because I'm too lazy to install something else and that's what came with my installation.

I use Kmail for both personal and business email. The integration with Kontact, the PIM, was the deciding factor. I had used Outlook 2xxx for several years, then Thunderbird for two or three years, and now Kmail/Kontact. Really satisfied with it, too, and it offers more features to me than Thunderbird (a good client as well, if all you do is mail).
