Any GUI IMAP clients that don't suck?

Currently I am using Thunderbird which is OK but has an annoying bug which causes it to keep open too many connections to the mail server and then I have to close it down or wait for it to time out before it will do anything.
I used to use KMail but it was dog slow on IMAP the last time I used it.
Evolution is bleghhh. Geary looks like it might be OK. The others look like they were last updated in the mid 90s.
What do other people use? I'm not interested in console-based clients (even though those are probably the fastest). Are there any others that use Qt instead of GTK?

I think you're going to need to be a little more technical in your requirements besides "OK", "mid 90s" and "bleghhh".
...but I'm not sure what the point is. You can read the list of GUI email clients here and just try them out yourself. Should take about 30 minutes.
EDIT: There was a related discussion not too long ago: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=171989

  • Problem setting up IMAP client that is housed on my MacMini OS 10.6 Server

    I can access my mail account on my Mac Mini OS 10.6 server from my iMac. I can not set up the clients on my iPhone (3S) and iPad (Wi-Fi). Both access the sever through the same Wi-Fi circuit that the iMac uses. Both were originally are synced to the iMac. Error message is first
    "No password is provided for IMAP account". When the password is manually added then the response is
    ""servername" is not responding. Check your network connection and that you entered the correct information in the "incoming Mail Server" filed. I have checked multiple times and modified connection settings just to get the same response. Thank goodness the iMac client works. Could this be a mail server setting or a DNS issue?

    It amuses me that the email that was sent to confirm the posting of this question had a clickable link. Naturally that link did not work. Cutting and pasting it into FireFox allowed me to complete the posting process. Annoying.

  • Any photo sync apps that don't wipe out outlook contact photos?

    My primary contact list is on my exchange mailbox.
    If I take a picture on my phone and assign it to a contact the photo properly syncronizes to my exchange contacts in a few moments; however all of the photo syncing tools like Sync.Me that I've used do not populate the outlook contact photos.
    There used to be a product to synchronize facebook contact photos directly to exchange, however since outlook started supporting the facebook social connector the developer pulled the tool from the web.   The shortcoming of the facebook / linked in social connector is that it does not populate the photos in the contacts.  It just dynamically shows the current facebook/linkedin photo when reading emails in outlook.   
    So Sync.Me doesn't send contact photos to exchange, and outlook social connector does not download the pictures to contacts which means they don't show up on the phone.
    Worse than that, if you use something like Sync.Me it actually erases the photo from the outlook contact.
    Does anyone use iphone with exchange and have a solution that works both ways?

    Is there any news on the matter?
    Man thanks.

  • Creating web sites that don't suck with Aperture and iWeb

    My goal was to create a web site that combined a few pages created in iWeb with Aperture web galleries. For something that should be trivial, it's actually rather difficult.

    Only the LA gallery at the top uses the Aperture style; the others are legacy galleries. One thing at a time.

  • Royalty free music that doesn't suck

    I'm not a music composer (and I don't play one on TV) but I am someone who needs music for projects sometimes, mainly video modules for conference openers. The big problem is that, more often than not, my clients aren't willing to pay for an audio engineer/composer to do up a custom track for them. I know, in the big scheme of things, that this is cheaper than me sitting for hours/days sifting through websites with royalty free music but they see the price tag for custom work and freak out.
    So, since Google will allow you to pay to up your placement in their searches, I am fed up with searching sites that suck and thought that, while it doesn't exactly have to do with fine Adobe products (of which I've purchased several [including Audition], spending many thousands of dollars over the years, for any Adobe personnel out there who might read this post and doesn't think it applies to this product), I thought I'd come to this forum and ask you people directly if you know of any sites with RFM that don't suck. You know what I mean, if I have to hear another 60 sec. clip of "atmospheric strings", I may just puke. I did try to find an audio forum to ask this question on but, once again, Google let me down.
    There's simply got to be some music library out there somewhere that's fairly consistently good, or at least the amount of corporate hoaky blech is at a minimum. Or maybe you, as a composer, have your own site with decent stuff that doesn't appear within the first 100 returns of a Google search. Please, let me know! I've got a project I'm working on right now where I'm in a similar bind with a client who thinks they're David Foster without the audio board and doesn't understand that all this costs money, even if it's only $39.95 (and the additional hours of all my searching). They also don't understand that just because they own the CD doesn't mean you're allowed to set pictures to it and call it your own. And if I have to listen to "Simply the Best" used in another video, I may just scream.
    Thanks for any help you can provide!

    I have been using IB Audio for years. Ian is a great composer (and nice guy). It's a yearly membership or by the track. The membership is the best value. For one price you get HUNDREDS of tracks and loops.

  • IMAP client, delete mail problems

    Hello all,
    I am on GW2012 and for a while now I have been having this problem.
    Anyone, whether using Apple, Android or any other device/client, that connects to the 2012 GWIA to check mail, if they delete a piece of mail, it is simply striked through and not deleted. It will look deleted on the IMAP client/device, but when one looks at the full client or web client, the email that should have been deleted only has a strike all the way through it. It never deleted until it gets deleted in the full or web client.
    Is there a setting somewhere in GroupWise that is causing this to happen?

  • Any good note taking apps that don't use the cloud to sync to PC?

    I'm looking for a note taking app that has an iPad client and a PC client that also acts as a server. I want to be able to keep my ipad notes in sync with my PC notes for work without using any cloud-like services. My iPad is connected to the same corporate network as my PC.
    Any suggestions? I'm not fussed about special features like handwriting, images, colours, formatting, etc. folders and tags would be nice though.

    No, I don't sync via iTunes any more, but the option is clearly still there, with a warning about what might happen if I turn it on.

    Thank you. I put it in airplane mode like you suggested, but it looks to me like all the applications and ads are still running. Anyway, I'm just gonna play when I'm really really bored and use them as less as possible. Thank you again for your quick answer.

  • I'm trying to delete some recently downloaded apps that don't work. They are faded grey and although they shake with the other apps, no cross appears in the top corner. Any ideas anyone? Thanks, Sean

    I have the same issue witha  slight variation.  The app icons that are grayed out and cannot be deleted are DUPLICATES of other apps that I already have.  For instance I now have 2 Redbox apps - one works normally, the other cannot be opened or deleted. 

  • Get rowns that don't exist in any of the tables.

    Hi,
    I need to implement some views to compare systems.
    This views will compare tables with the same structure and I want to extract the rows that don’t exist in any of the sides.
    I need to implement some views to compare only two tables, others to compare 3 tables and one to compare 5 tables and another to compare 10 tables!
    Each table can contains from a few rows up to 10 million rows (that was the biggest count I found for this tables).
    My test scenario:
    CREATE TABLE TEST_TABLE
    (COL1 NUMBER ,
    COL2 CHAR(25));
    CREATE TABLE TEST_TABLE2
    (COL1 NUMBER ,
    COL2 CHAR(25));
    CREATE TABLE TEST_TABLE3
    (COL1 NUMBER ,
    COL2 CHAR(25));
    insert into TEST_TABLE (COL1,COL2) values (1,'2');
    insert into TEST_TABLE (COL1,COL2) values (11,'t1');
    insert into TEST_TABLE2 (COL1,COL2)  values (1,'2');
    insert into TEST_TABLE2 (COL1,COL2) values (22,'t2');
    insert into TEST_TABLE3 (COL1,COL2) values (1,'2');
    insert into TEST_TABLE3 (COL1,COL2) values (33,'t3');To find the differences between two tables I implemented the following:
    select * from
    (select * from TEST_TABLE
    minus
    select * from TEST_TABLE2
    union all
    (select * from TEST_TABLE2
    minus
    select * from TEST_TABLE
    Result:
    COL1 COL2
    11     t1                      
    22     t2                       For the 3 tables comparison The result should be:
    Result:
    COL1 COL2
    11     t1                      
    22     t2                      
    33     t3                       For the other ones I can implement the same way, but for sure this is not the prettiest and most performing solution!
    How can I achieve the result I intent with the most performance?
    Thanks,
    Ricardo Tomás

    You didn't say if you allow duplicates in your tables, so i assumed you didn't.
    If a single table could have multiple occurrences of a given col1, col2 combination you would need to distinct the col1,col2 list from each table before doing the union all.
    ME_XE?  select
      2     col1, col2
      3  from
      4  (
      5     select col1, col2       from test_table
      6             union all
      7     select col1, col2       from test_table2
      8             union all
      9     select col1, col2       from test_table3

    jaypogi,
    Welcome to Discussions.
    Use one of these scripts:
    Not In Any Playlist creates a text file listing of those songs.
    Not In Any Playlist To Playlist puts them in a playlist.
    Hope this helps.
