Sylpheed is an e-mail client (mailer, MUA). It is simple, lightweight but featureful, and easy-to-use. It supports various protocols such as POP3, IMAP4rev1, and NNTP, SSL is also supported. Sylpheed adopts 3-paned display similar to the popular e-mail clients for Windows such as Outlook Express and Becky. So it is easier to use it for the first time. Performance is always cared for when implementing Sylpheed because it exerts a strong influence on the usability. For example, you can read messages in a folder which has 20-30 thousand without stress.
