I tried Thunderbird but it’s got a lot going for it. I just want something simple and minimal
Preferably a native app rather than something built with electron
I use Arch Linux
This doesn’t really answer your question, but you may want to consider hanging on to Thunderbird given massive UI upgrade that’s coming very soon for it: https://blog.thunderbird.net/2023/07/our-fastest-most-beautiful-release-ever-thunderbird-115-supernova-is-here/
It’s released already, just not in flathub yet.
Geary
Kmail
claws-mail
If you have a Qt based desktop (KDE, LXQt…) use Kmail.
If you have a GTK based desktop (Gnome, XFCE…) use Geary.dont use kmail. it has great function-ability and looks good, but it will completely break every year at least
I’m happy with Evolution.
Geary?
Thank goodness you told us you use Arch
Oh, i saw your comment and tried really hard not to interact, but i really have to tell you something.
I use arch btw
The upcoming (recently released) thunderbird version might be what you’re looking for! It’s not yet in most official repos though.
He said he’s using Arch so it should be available. I got it on my EndeavourOS and I’m really satisfied.
Oh I missed that he’s using arch. In that case, he can install it from AUR, possibly building it himself, followed by only a few hours of troubleshooting what broke in his system after doing that :-P
I really like thunderbird so far, thank you for the suggestion, is there a way to get email notifications even while the client is closed tho? seems like I only get notifications if I keep it perma open.

I’ve tried it, doesn’t seem to work, thank you though.
It is available on snap in the beta channel if you want it through a package
NO SNAPS!
Do grow up
What do you mean? Thunderbird is the default mail application on Windows for me. I didn’t even know there is something else.
- built with electron
Didn’t you read the ToS? Those words are considered as hate speech in every Linux communities.
Try Neomutt.
