which email client do you recommend? Proxy socks5 support
mandatory. Rss support preferred. I had a look at claws mail. It supports socks5. But in the claws mail menu there is no option to select proxy dns. Does claws mail not use dns?
Thanks.
Years ago there was TorBirdy, an addon for Thunderbird developed by Tor Project. It has been abandoned for years now.
From what I understand, the only "safe" way to use an email client (considering there are many other aspects to consider, try reading the old TorBirdy documentation) would be to use TAILS.
Personally, I would say use Tor Browser and a webmail client.
danwin1210.de has Squirrel mail and an onion service, which doesn't even require JS. It's a good bet, as good as any other.
Icedove endures everything you mentioned as a requirement. And is installed by default in Trisquel.
where do you download icedove?
Is in Trisquel repositories
sudo apt install icedove
for installation on non trisquel systems where can you download a
deb package?
With 'apt download icedove' on Trisquel or clicking on http://archive.trisquel.info/trisquel/pool/main/t/thunderbird/icedove_115.14.0+build1-0ubuntu0.22.04.1~mt1+11.0trisquel22_amd64.deb
You may want a locale in http://archive.trisquel.info/trisquel/pool/main/t/thunderbird/ (or using 'apt download' on Trisquel) too.

I am not sure what you are looking for. Every email client uses DNS, but this is more a system setting than a per application setting. If you want to use a particular DNS server, you can configure it in your network settings, whether you use MATE, KDE or another desktop environment.
I use GNOME evolution mainly. Claws mail is much lighter (and is very good), evolution is similar to icedove. One reason why I use evolution rather than icedove is because evolution uses GPG keys from the keyring directly, while icedove wants to store them separately. I also tend to find evolution easier to use and configure, but it may be subjective.
