   well firefox is bloated too.  33 megs for an email client to sit there    
   and do nothing is a bit much, maybe i'm old fashioned.

   well lets be practical here.  something like an email client shouldnt   
   have to depend on a ton of memory. i have a shitload of memory too, but    
   when i open up taskmgr and see any simple program eating up 100 megs,    
   that's enough for me to say 'damn!'

   well i use what works for me. like i said i use poppeeper and that works    
   with multiple accounts and web email providers.  i dont really have the    
   need for my client to be portable for different oses. yes i use windows    
   vists/xp/ubuntu/mint but i dont need to have all my shit sync'd on each    
   computer.   
      
   i'm sure you could find something to take a look it if you use google :D
