Hi all,

I really, really like Mozilla Thunderbird; but what I have come to like even more is not leaving my terminal. Any recommendations on email clients in the terminal?

I've been thinking about aerc, but I'm curious what's working (or not) for all of you. mutt seems like it's crazy difficult to set up (which I'd rather avoid).

I need something that can handle all the account types I use with Thunderbird---namely, gmail and Microsoft exchange.

Thanks!

    Here are my dotfiles for you to have a look and get an idea: https://codeberg.org/n0p1lls/Config/src/branch/main/dotfiles

    There you can see how to configure the mutt client, adjusting it to you through some small changes.

    For example, instead of: “set record="imaps://imap.gmail.com/[Gmail]/Enviados" for your gmail account, if your language is English, it would be something like this: “set record=“imaps://imap.gmail.com/[Gmail]/Sent".
