Guide Review - Mozilla SeaMonkey 1.1 - Free Email Program
Maybe you've read somewhere that Mozilla is "not for end users." Don't believe it. It was never true, and now it is less than ever. Getting, installing and using Mozilla is a snap, and there's so much about it to enjoy that you'll soon learn to love Mozilla, the email client.
Mozilla is a fully featured email program with flexible filters, good IMAP support, powerful searching, strong HTML and plain text support, really useful free-form tags and views for prioritizing and organizing mail, S/MIME encryption and — probably most importantly — many great features that help maintain computer security and personal privacy.
You can turn off JavaScript and remote images as well as cookies and still enjoy a comfortable email experience. That's also thanks to great spam filtering. After some training, Mozilla's Bayesian spam filter works wonders with very few false positives. What Mozilla still lacks: outgoing mail filters and flexible message templates.
