I used to be a Thunderbird user. I switched to claws because it is much more responsive and not a resource hog. However my search for an alternate email client started because I felt the search interface for Thunderbird was either easy and restrictive or flexible and cumbersome depending on which one whether you are using quick or full search. I wanted more control over how I search the meta information in my emails. With claws this is very smooth with its easily constructed search queries for the "extended search" interface. I think the philosophy is similar to how GMail search behaves but with capabilities much beyond that (e.g. searching with external utilities, searching email headers, support for regular expressions) I hope this helps. -- Suvayu Open source is the future.
