    Thunderbird still isn’t too much of a looker, but it got a lot better recently after they added the vertical layout and made a bunch of smaller improvements. I’ve been using it for a few months now (after having avoiding it for maybe a decade), and I’m pretty enthusiastic about it.

      I’ve been looking at options for my older clients as MS has been pushing this new Outlook client. Thunderbird is unfortunately fugly compared to more modern looking apps. I haven’t been successful transitioning any of those older folks to using Thunderbird as it’s too different for them.

      I’ve been rolling back the Outlook installs but it’s just a bandaid. I’d love to hear that’s there’s a comparable replacement to the W10 mail app.

      I tried using it a while back but went back to Mail app. Will try again, esp since I’m planning to move to Ubuntu as the main os.

        Good luck! Aesthetically I find Geary to be the best client for GNOME, but Thunderbird has more advanced features and broader support. :)

      There’s also Betterbird, a fork of Thunderbird which retains some user-liked features that Mozilla removed as well as some bug fixes.
