I have been looking for an email client on Linux after being tired of Gmail and Outlook web clients.
I had Thunderbird installed on my system and thought I’d give it a spin. I set up POP for my email accounts and it worked fantastic… For a total of 2 hours, after which I realised that searching in Thunderbird is simply not going to work for me. I need to search by attachment name and sometimes even by text inside attachment and unfortunately Thunderbird can’t do that (I think I tried an extension too but it made the UI super clunky to the point that I couldn’t even understand how to navigate it anymore).
Does Betterbird or any other email client fix this problem? I’m willing to try other options if they are FOSS.
Thanks
Honestly I might try this. Or maybe I can use grep lol. We’ll see how it fits in my workflow, I’m comfortable in the CLI but haven’t really entertained the idea a CLI email client before. Thanks
Recoll (thankfully) has a GUI. It isn’t the prettiest app, but it was easy to set up and I’ve otherwise quite happy with it.
