There are many options when it comes to email clients for Linux systems. With Kubuntu, KMail is presented by default, either as a standalone client or as part of the Kontact personal information manager. Other popular Linux email clients include Mozilla Thunderbird, Evolution, Mailody, and even Mutt, a command line email client.
KMail is the email component of Kontact, the KDE personal information manager. KMail by itself is similar in functionality to other popular email programs, while Kontact is as full featured as the fanciest personal information managers, as it can be configured with calendars, address books, notes, an RSS reader, time tracking, journals, and simple project planning. The following are just some of the features of KMail.
Supporto IMAP, POP3 e SMTP.
Supporto agli algoritmi di accesso sicuro SSL, TLS e DIGEST-MD5.
Supporto delle firme e della cifratura PGP e GnuPG.
Lettura HTML, filtraggio dello spam, set interni di caratteri, funzioni di filtraggio e ricerca, controllo ortografico e potente funzione di ricerca.
Maggiori informazioni su KMail e sulla sua configurazione si possono trovare nel Manuale di KMail. Per il suo uso all'interno di Kontact, fate riferimento anche al Manuale di Kontact.
