On my laptop, I just use mutt, which I almost prefer to Claws-Mail. Almost. Agree with you on web based mail. My first experience with personal email WAS web based, because I used hotmail, but when I got an accunt with an ISP, obviously a mail client was superior, and still is. Even more so because I think web based clients are WORSE now than they were 20+ years ago. Confusing, slow, janky, awkward ergonomics.
