Re: Decluttering Thunderbird/other alternatives?

Mutt when used with gmail needs its own app password generated for it. It's not possible to use original google account passwords inside mutt since mutt hasn't yet google's security standards on linux. Though google uses Linux extensively recent discovery of 15 year old kernel security bugs hackers exploit will need fixing. You can be sure Windows has even older security holes in it due to its age and several versions.

hey there,

hmm, I'm affraid I kind of don't understand it.

How exactly is Thunderbird clutter?


As for Lightning, yes, it used to be there, but it was never appearing
anywhere near the components used for navigation, and was so invisible,
that I don't remember ever seeing it.

In fact, I don't even know, whether it is still here or not. :D

There were various changes, and I don't remember what's the current
resolution.


As for the new message window, what version of TB do you use?

In 78+ releases, the recipient field was replaced by a newone, which
allows you to write everything to that one place.

Right after finishing the address and tabbing or may be pressing some
key (I did not check), it disappears and nextone can be written, if you
wish the message to be send to anyone else.


So in practice, you need just one tab to get to the subject field.


In general, I'm personally really satisfied with TB. It perhaps could be
a little bit faster with imap accounts, but since I use Protonmail,
which provides its own app to create a local imap server for end to end
inbox encryption / decryption, that doesn't really bother me as local
sockets have practically no speed limits.


Being able to sort e-mails to threads (in a logical way, unlike
Evolution), receive RSS news and write eMails in Markdown, I personally
currently don't have any reasons to search alternatives, except my
curiosity. :)

So is there a way I can declutter Thunderbird to be simpler/easier to
navigate? I don't /need/ Lightningtaking up space, or having to tab
twice in writing a message to get to the subject field.

So can I do anything to declutter Thunderbird. Or are there any
alternative email programs that are just as good as Thunderbird that
work great with Orca?
