    I guess way back when microsoft said than win10 would be the last version of windows, what the meant was it would be the last anyone wants to use.

      They certainly tried with Secure Boot. Thank Stallman that UEFI is a somewhat-open architecture.

        It works better for searching, it works offline, catch-all addresses just work with correct from address when replying, backup and archiving, can move mails from box to box without sending.

        I also use roundcube, but only to read mails. If I want to reply to a catch-all mail I have to create an alias which is super tedious.

          What do you mean by this? I’d like to be able to reply from a website@mydomain.com automatically.

          For me Thunderbird makes me create an alias in order to reply to my catch all (*@mydomain.com). Did you have to configure something specifically?

            This is built into Thunderbird for a while now.

            1. Go to Account Settings
            2. Enable Reply from this identity when delivery headers match
            3. Enter your domain prefixed by a wildcard (*), for example *@yourdomain.com
            4. Close/confirm all your changes
            5. Open an email that was sent to one of your catch-all addresses and click the reply button.
            6. The FROM field should be the catch-all address and not your general address.

      Replaced with one god awful one. I actually liked the calendar application, does all I need it to do. But no, I can’t have just a calendar application anymore according to Microsoft

        Mozilla used to have Sunbird, until they also rolled it into Thunderbird. Standalone calendars aren’t popular anymore, but in sure there’s some around.

        I understand the mail integration, as appointments can be processed directly.

    If anyone’s in this thread because they’re looking for a new mail client after Microsoft killed the old Mail app, and haven’t been happy with the typical suggestions of using each email service’s web interface or Thunderbird, I found I don’t hate Mailspring (with the fancy features disabled - I just want my email client to do email well and don’t want extras that provide clutter).

        The majority of regular folks will only ever upgrade when they get a new computer. Most Me Maw’s and Pa Paw’s would sooner let their computers catch fire from being loaded with cat than get a new one. Hell. They are all still using ball mice.

        As for me, as long as I have an iso I’ll happily run it in a vm. Indefinitely.

          Ball mice is better than laser mice since you can take out the ball and play with it

            Can’t argue with that. The ones with the big ball on the top are especially good because you can use an 8 ball
