I never did quite understand the overall dissatisfaction with the OS2007 email client. I found it simple, clean, and effective on the Tablet. The delete-on-the-server option mentioned here is yet another reason that I'm glad that I'm still running OS2007 (and Opera WITH MicroB) on my N800.
Of course, I'm also digging many of the other improvements of having Diablo on my N810.......

be warned tho that the interface is not adapted to the tablet in any way...
Claws works like a charm, and is pretty optimized for the n800. Only drawback is that it is cumbersome to setup + there is a million+1 options which is quite confusing.

For a free webmail interface, check out mail2web.com (at http://www.mail2web.com/). As long as you have a username and password, you can access any POP or IMAP email account via the web.
I use this on my N800 to check my less critical email addresses.

That is what I am looking for, any suggestions?
in a way, i would love for someone to clone the modified modest ui form here: http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...ad.php?t=22293
and apply it to osso-mail.
thats basically all the mail client i think i need.
for my level of mail use, imap is overkill, and also its unavailable on the accounts i have available to me right now. and no, i dont feel like signing up with google or similar to have it grab the mail from all of them and put them in one place.
and reading about claws-mail, it sounds like both the devs there and those working on modest/tinymail see pop as a legacy protocol best forgotten, and imap being the new god. and based in that the pop implementation is at a bare minimum...
