Hi Everyone.

I'm looking for an email client that does everything that Microsoft
Outlook does, and just as well (or better)
I've tried Evolution, and, while it is good as an email client, it
has problems with connecting to my Google Calender. I've also
noticed some other problems with it.

I've also tried Thunderbird, which is a fantastic email client, but
it doesn't have a calender, which I do need.

Needless to say, it must be open-source, and available in the Ubuntu
repos.

Thanks in advance,
David

I know this is an old thread but I've just decided to try using
Mulberry again after a lapse of several months. This mail client has
improved dramatically and I think it may be what you are looking for.
It is extremely configureable, has calendar and address book
functionality with the ability to connect to Google Calendars and
just about anything else. I've only been playing with it for the last
few hours but I am extremely impressed. It's nearly as good as Mutt :)


David,

Try the Lightning plug-in for Thunderbird. It syncs pretty well with
Scheduleworld (which itself can sync to some extent with Google
Calendar). I haven't tried the latter, but I used TB with SW for a
while and it worked out quite well.

With best regards,

Pete
