Sylpheed is a compact and fast e-mail and news
client that is very light on resources. The interface of the program is
very intuitive for most people that have used a mail client before.
But the program is easy to work with for any computer user and guides you through the setup of your mailbox from the startup. Advanced users will soon learn that the application is loaded with features and will accomodate their needs as well.
Sylpheed is a good alternative to other email clients due to its functions and its graceful interface.
