Scriptable and Command Line Mailers
From time to time, I try-out different
mail clients, hoping to
find the ideal solution. Of course, no luck so far. So, what would be an ideal
mail client for me?
It needs to:
- Scriptable
- Simple transparent structure of mail archive that make mail backup
and restore very easy (that effectively excludes Outlook that otherwise is
a good, scriptable and very flexible mail client)
- Has a thread mode
- Allow an editing of subject and body of the stored messages
- Be cross-platform (at least Unix and Windows)
- Has a Palm compatible address book, which will offer drop-list of possible matches
as I type in, and be automatically populated from each reply/forward
I do
- Defaults to quoting entire message when replying and put my signature
below
- Can have two-pane interface when replying - upper for the original message,
bottom for my reply
- Has a quote-me button, which will transfer the selected text from
upper pane as quoted to bottom pane
- Has regular expression based incoming mail filters
- Correctly support Eastern-European codepages
- Has an OFM-style two pane interface for reading messages, which can be arranged
in various ways
Thunderbird
does not look good to me: it looks like all the ingenuity went to icons
and GUI staff, I see no major functionality benefits in comparison with
tried and true Netscape Messenger that I use at home But Netscape
Messenger is not scriptable and mail filter does not accept regular
expressions.
Lotus Notes (that I use at work) is scriptable and
has very powerful API (it is essentially a database, not a email client). Still
because of its database roots Lotus Notes sucks in it's own way. In
earlier versions has a very strange interface although in 6.5 it became
closer to normal Windows interface and is much less annoying (old
joke was: out of 10 users only one does not like Lotus Notes interface;
then other nine hate it, hate it, hate it ;-). Still even in version 6.5
mail filtering rules implementation is completely abysmal and is a sign
of IBM programmers degradation. But even with its faults Lotus Notes 6.5
and above are pretty competitive email clients for the enterprise
environment as they avoid problems with stream of Outlook
vulnerabilities that creates mess in enterprise environment.
I heard good things about
The Bat!. For
example the Bat! has had Saved Searches for a while. But I never used it
myself.
There are a lot of high quality command line SMTP mailers for Windows
available.
Blat is probably the most popular. It was developed by Pedro Mendes
and Mark Neal at the
University of Wales at Aberystwyth. There is also command line
client for Lotus Notes, see

Troubleshooting Blat
If e-mail notification doesn't
work, you should verify that Blat is installed correctly by trying to send a
message from the command line.
Open a command prompt window
and send a test message with the syntax
An example would be
This should mail you a copy of
your config.sys file if you use the appropriate e-mail address.
If this fails to work, then
Blat should generate an error message indicating the reason.
Blat has an absolute
requirement for a recipient following the "-t" field.
If it turns out that Blat works
correctly on the command line, but fails in actual use, then the problem is
likely that Ceilidh doesn't have the appropriate permission to write the
temporary mail file. Mike Pangborn, at Penn State University, notes that one
solution is to "put Blat in a directory out of the WWW-root path and
allow all users write permission to that directory."
If Ceilidh is still not sending
e-mail, you should include the "-test" diagnostic flag on the "sendmail="
line in ceilidh.conf. Addition of this flag will prevent Ceilidh from
deleting the temporary mail file (used to store the body of the message) and
the command string that is sent to the operating system will be displayed by
the browser at the bottom of the screen that returns the message index.
In ceilidh.conf, you must not
have set "server_process=yes" if you want to see this diagnostic report in
the browser.
Copy this string from the
browser's window, paste it onto the command line and execute it, omitting
the beginning "sendmail= " and the ending " > null". If there is anything
wrong, you should be notified by an error message. You will also be able to
verify that you are on the recipient list.
The most likely error message
from Blat is:
Failed to open
registry key for Blat
to set the SMTP server's address and the user name at that address do:
blat -install server username
or use '-server <server name>' and '-f <user name>'
aborting, nothing sent
This is fairly
self-explanatory.
You may need to copy this into
a text editor and remove carriage returns that have been inserted into the
command string prior to pasting this string onto the command line. Inclusion
of any carriage returns will cause the sendmail command to fail on the
command line as it will be executed in fragments.
The first version of Thunderbird was worse then Netscape Messenger (virtual
search folders were nice though). This one might bet old Messenger.

Mozilla, the developer of the free Thunderbird e-mail client,
has taken a good program and made it better with the release of
the version 2.0 beta 1. It's rare that a beta release isn't
buggy, clunky, and generally a mess -- especially when, as word
has it, the developers are changing the code base -- but I was
pleasantly surprised by its stability and the dearth of issues.
Luckily, Mozilla hasn't made the mistake of fixing what ain't
broke. Thunderbird 2.0 will still include free extensions to add
functionality and themes to change the look and feel at your
whim. The spam filter still catches most spam before it clogs
your inbox, and it still includes a terrific search function and
built-in RSS. Mozilla also has made some welcome changes without
breaking anything in the process, but there are features that
could still use some work.
I downloaded the installation program and installed without
an issue. The install found all my mail, folders, and settings
and imported them seamlessly into the new version without
prompting. My Thunderbird 1.5 extensions and themes didn't have
version 2.0 equivalents, but that's to be expected when the beta
was only recently released.
There is a distinct difference in the look and feel of the
application. Mozilla has updated the toolbar, brightened and
changed the icons, and made the interface generally more
pleasant and readable. For instance, the icon that lets you flag
your e-mail messages is now a gold star, which is much more
visible than the small red flag in the older version.
When mail arrives, the system tray utility not only informs
you that there is new mail (as in previous versions) but also
lists the first several e-mails. Unfortunately, it displays for
such a short time, it's hard to read much beyond the first item
or two, but the additional information lets you make an informed
decision about whether or not to switch to your inbox. While you
can customize how much detail you see in these alerts, you
cannot affect the timing of the display, something that might be
nice to add before final release.
In the in-box, you can place the cursor over any folder
marked with new mail and you get a list of all the new e-mails
inside, another handy new feature. Once inside the folder, you
can see all new mail at a glance because of the nifty new-mail
icon (an orange asterisk).
Warning Of Dangerous E-Mail
As in the previous version, Thunderbird warns you about e-mails
with links to external images and those it considers possibly
dangerous or false. As a result, it won't display images until
you click a Show Images button. Thunderbird 2.0 enables you
choose to always allow images in certain e-mails -- clicking a
link opens the address book, which whitelists the e-mail. While
this is a welcome change, it would have been faster if
Thunderbird simply whitelisted the e-mail without opening the
address book. It also would be nice if Mozilla could apply a
similar principle to the mail it thinks is a possible scam, so
that you can whitelist these as well.
In addition, Mozilla has expanded the Tag feature in this
version, a long-overdue change. Instead of being limited to five
default tags as in previous versions, you can create as many
custom tags as you like, applying a different color to each one,
then using the filter or sort features to organize tagged
e-mail.
The RSS feature has been dressed up with new icons and the
same ability to place the cursor over a feed and see the new
items, but beyond that hasn't changed very much. The current
system requires that you know how to access the Subscriptions
dialog and makes you copy and paste the subscription link from
Firefox into Thunderbird. Mozilla should provide a no-brainer
subscription process that walks the user through the process of
adding a new feed in 2.0.
And one small pet peeve: Thunderbird still doesn't provide
the ability to create multiple signatures, a feature I miss from
my Outlook Express days.
For the most part, as with previous versions, Thunderbird 2.0
Beta 1 continues to shine. While there's still plenty of work to
be done, when you consider this is beta software, it's
especially impressive and the new features make this free e-mail
client even better.
Mozilla's suite of browser and
email programs is getting a makeover. The new suite, dubbed SeaMonkey,
contains an Internet browser, email program, IRC chat client and a basic web
page maker. Mozilla's goal is to develop a package that is "stable enough
for corporate use", while keeping the familiar look of its previous Mozilla
Application Suite.
What's New in SeaMonkey 1.0 Beta
"Thunderbird 0.9 is now
available for download! New features include
Saved Search Folders (aka Virtual Folders) which allow you to display messages
based on previously set search criteria across multiple folders.
Message Grouping allows you to organize e-mail in a folder by grouping them
based on various attributes like Date, Sender, Label, etc. Thunderbird 0.9 also
includes numerous bug fixes and other improvements. For more information, see
the release
notes. Builds can be found on the mozilla.org
FTP
server or in the release notes above."

the way Notes stores mail is a little different in concept to
most other things, folders don't "contain" messages, messages exist
in their own right in the database irrespective of what folders they
might be in. It is perfectly valid for a message to exist without
any folders including the message. Folders in Notes can have
documents dragged into them which stores that association and you
can get to the message through the folder. A saved search is what
would be called a view in Notes, that is a folder which is based on
a selection formula rather than manual fileing. It is perfectly
valid also for one message to be shown in many many folders and
views, but delete it from one it is deleted from all. Deleting a
message is very different from removing it from a folder. Views and
folders can also be categorised, this is basically the same thing as
the group by feature. Notes views are indexed rather than calculated
on the fly so I suspect they would be quicker for large mail files.
Notes of course isn't open source and you can only do limited view
customisation without the design client, I do like the user
interface for creating these saved searches, it is better than
creating a private view in Notes. |

There are a few reasons I use it for my home email:
1) Mouse gestures. I'm on a lot of mailing lists, and being able to
specify common actions as a gesture (right-click & drag right to
select the next unread message, for example) saves me a lot of time
digging through lists like Full-Disclosure.
2) Message threading. It's not perfect, but it helps a lot to be
able to group messages by thread (I think new versions of Outlook
can do this, but my 2000 version can not).

- It's faster than Outlook (though slower than Firefox). In the
latest Outlook, message rendering can take up to a few seconds - the
UI is just not very responsive.
- Leaner UI overall. I like Outlook's corporate functions, but I
just don't use them that often at work, and never at home. Also,
Outlook suffers from having 15 different ways to get to your folders
- they keep adding new panels and icons. I don't consider this a
good thing at all, since it rarely - if ever - increases my
productivity or improves my user experience. It just makes me click
around idly.
- Significantly faster (and better) quicksearch (there are even
rumors of search-as-you-type in the future!)
- As with any other Mozilla product, they listen to the users'
comments. If a reasonable, much-requested feature doesn't make it to
the release, I'll bet my hat there's an extension that does it.
- Shockingly, it's a better client for Ma and Pa User. Fewer
buttons, leaner out of the box, no office environment mumbo jumbo.
(I'm not even going to take seriously suggestions to use Outlook
Express in that case.) |

1. Profile, preferences, rules, contacts, etc are easy to backup.
You can have all your files in one place and you choose where.
2. IMAP support in Outlook really sucks... in a way i can`t even
describe it. Thunderbird is perfect with IMAP, and no need to purge
messages manually...
3. Saved Search folders in 0.9 are great. They are like views in
databases, but for your messages.
4. RSS support to keep you up with the news.
5. Great extensions makes Thunderbird even better.

In addition to what other posters have listed,
- Administration - One simple screen for e-mail accounts and another
simple screen for other configuration options. I find the Outlook
barrage of configuration windows and tabs VERY annoying. It's also
difficult to see exactly how POP/IMAP e-mail accounts are configured
in Outlook. If you see the options in Thunderbird you'll see what I
mean.
- These new Virtual Folders (mail's not really moved into them, but
it's a view over all your mail based on criteria you specify). I use
Outlook 2002 (XP) at work and I don't see any way to do the same
without creating rules to copy mail to folders.
- Message threads. I see no way to do this in Outlook 2002.
- Less features. Outlook has more features, but I don't have any use
for most of them. So Thunderbird is less cluttered for me. |

I have trouble getting many people to switch to TB even though
they quickly took up FF. The things keeping back these people I know
that are now using FF + Outlook are:
1) Buttons work differently, such as the delete button doesn't also
close the message if you opened the message in a new Window (These
type of problems are solvable with the Buttons! extension)
2) The context menu for Copy To and Move To is very annoying for
them to use since they typically have 100s of folders nested across
their accounts, and they can't seem to find the folder they want
fast enough, where as Outlook will just pop up a little window with
a folder tree for Copy/Move operations.
3) The address book contacts editor has most of the useful
information on the first tab, but the Company Title and Notes
section are on the 2nd and 3rd tab, and users find it annoying to
have to use these extra tabs for such common pieces of information,
when all the other stuff on the 2nd and 3rd tab is unused. Somehow,
they wan't those two fields duplicated onto the main tab for the
contacts editor.
4) Having to open the address book in a new window, and the contacts
sidebar tab really doesn't help anybody I suggested it to here.
Users really seem to wait a contacts folder in their folder list to
see the list of contacts.
5) The contacts list is not easily sortable like Outlook and blank
fields seem to sort above A forcing them to sort Z-A and scroll down
to find the stuff in the middle. I guess they just want A-Z sorting
to put blanks after Z. |

Testing these against TB 0.9:
1.
a) Double click on message to open in new window
b1) click on delete in window deletes that message and opens the
next message
b2) go to message list and delete message in open window -- the
window closes and the message is deleted
2. Valid point.
a) I suggest you work in the 3-pane view so that you can drag and
drop the messages in the tree on the left.
3.
It would be hard to search for that one, and would need some time to
come up with a good bug report.
4.
What exact functionality and presentation of information are they
missing? I would need a lot more details to make a good bug report.
5. Good point.

| Storing email in a database would be an interesting way to do
things, but it sounds a bit overly complex for most mail readers out
there... most of which (rightly, I think) spend the bulk of their
effort focusing on the front end and actually reading the mail.
Also, the word "export" seems to imply that you don't want to keep
the database up-to-date with your email in real time.
I think it'd be very interesting to see an IMAP server
that would manage mail folders in a database, though. That'd take a
lot of stress off the folder managing complexity away from the mail
reading client.
Someone else who replied mentioned that databases suck for
handling free text. In my experience, they're at least as good as
any other format, and they tend to have a much more established way
of organising text indexes for any searching that's needed. The
headers on emails can easily be separated for separate indexing and
searching away from the body text, and even the body text can be
indexed with real full-text indexes. (I'm not sure how well MySql
supports that, but there's at least one contributed extension to
PostgreSQL (tsearch2) that does full text indexing nicely. |

One of the major annoyances my company is finding during our
internal Thunderbird testing is this freakish behavior:
1) user gets email.
2) user replies to email, text wraps correctly.
3) user forwards email and the text does not wrap at all, but
instead runs off the screen horizontally causing annoying
readability issues.
Does anyone know why this is? It still appears to be in Thunderbird
0.9. I'm confused as to if it is a bug or by design [ietf.org]. If it's
a bug, it's kind of a big one. If it's by design, it's kind of a
poor design and there should be an option or preference to have
"reply" and "forward" act consistently.
Otherwise, Thunderbird ROCKS -- nice work Thunderbird developers.
It's fast, free and just getting better and better with each

Mozilla Thunderbird is a redesign
of the Mozilla mail component. Our goal is to produce a cross platform
stand alone mail application using the XUL user interface language.
Our intended customer is someone who uses
Mozilla Firefox
(or another stand alone browser) as their primary browser and wants
a mail client based on mozilla that "plays nice" with the browser.
In addition, by focusing solely on stand alone mail, we believe
we can make some dents in the overall footprint and performance
of the mail client by removing components and chrome we don't need.
On top of that, the UI becomes much cleaner as a stand alone application
as opposed to being part of the mozilla suite.
In addition to the feature set found
in Mozilla Mail, Mozilla
Thunderbird has several new features and improvements to make your
mail and new experience better. Highlights include:
- The ability to
customize your toolbars the way you want them. Choose View
/ Toolbars / Customize inside any window.
-
UI extensions can be
added to Mozilla Thunderbird to customize your experience with
specific features and enhancements that you need. Support for
extensions. A full list of available extensions can be found
here.
- A new look and feel. Thunderbird
also supports a large number of
downloadable themes which alter the appearance of the client.
- An
addressing sidebar for mail compose which makes it easy
and convenient to add address book contacts to emails.
-
Online help includes a FAQ, tips and
tricks and other useful information.
- Simplified preferences UI and
menus.
- Footprint and performance improvements.

MH
MH use shell as scripting language. To achieve this possibility in MH,
each command is a separate program, and the shell is used as an interpreter. So
all the features of UNIX shells (pipes, redirection, history, aliases, and so on)
work with MH -- you don't have to learn a new interface.
MH is an incredibly rich and flexible email environment. The difference between
MH and other mail systems reminds me of the difference between a wide-open powerful
operating system like UNIX and a more-restricted environment like Microsoft Windows.
At first, the limited environment looks good because it's simpler: the system designer
gave you a limited set of choices -- usually with menus that remind you of the (limited)
choices you have. But once you reach the limits and want to do more, you may be
out of luck. Starting with MH really isn't that difficult -- and, with the flexibility
you'll gain (whether you do the customization or someone else does), there's almost
no limit to what you can do with email under MH.
One more advantage of MH is the "user-friendly" interfaces that have been designed
for it. This book covers three of them: xmh, mh-e, and exmh. If you
don't like working at the UNIX command line all of the time, these interfaces make
MH commands easier to use: they execute the standard MH commands for you. When you
need to do something more, you can go to a UNIX command line and type MH commands.
Switching between standard MH commands and the three front-ends to MH takes little
or no time.
