Guys, I must have buggered up my Evolution Email. Everytime I am trying to write an email message and hit the send button at first nothing happens...meaning pop up window "create a new message" just stays open and nothing is being sent...

Any idea what that could be?

I take that question back. Who cares. It's been a long time since I have wanted to stop being lazy and start learning how to use Mutt. I'll seize this opportunity and sudo aptitude purge evolution.

Thanks

What about seamonkey? What about reinstall evolution?

If he want something as ugly as a terminal client, yes he could give a try to alpine and mutt. And if thunderbird were 100% free software, it would appear in the Trisquel applications list.

Alpine might be ugly but it is very effective, much more so than any graphical client.

Thunderbird is free and in the repos.

What do you mean by "ineffective" in this context?

To the point, fast, no thrills or frills. Keyboard over mouse. No eye candy. All walk no talk.

If you read a lot of mail, you will notice the difference.

Thunderbird IS in the repos. The problem with thunderbird isn't that it is not 100% free it is that it recommends non-free addons to the user through the add-on menu. The version in Trisquel has been modified to fix that issue and directs the user to our own add-on page.

However if the user wishes to use a terminal based email client more power to them as long as it is free. If that suits their needs better awesome.
