SeaMonkey.

Switched to it years ago because I got so sick of the Lightning add-on in Thunderbird not staying disabled as it was told to.
Now I see it's been included in SeaMonkey with the latest update, hopefully it will not show the same behaviour as it did with Thunderbird, so far it's remained disabled as it should...

I use Evolution because of Google Calendar integration.

I mainly use the web-clients, but I also have Evolution to open some spam accounts all at once, and Claws Mail to keep a POP-3 mailbox of my academic e-mails.

I use Thunderbird, because of the Google calendar integration, which USED to work well until this week... ;-( In addition, it works well under Windows, where the Google calendar still works. On MX the calendar shows correctly for the current month, but changing to another month does nothing, so I must live in the moment-- no past or future... Whether this new malady has anything to do with MX, some update glitch or whatever is still a VERY ANNOYING mystery.

Web clients for the simplicity. I'm sending and receiving emails, not royal dispatches.

In Linux, newer isn't always better. The best solution is the one that works.

I see MX Package Installer has Evolution. This is a nice email client that can handle Exchange Web Services.

After you have installed Evolution from the Package Installer, use the following in the Terminal:

$ sudo apt-get install evolution-ews
