Thread: Alternative to VM in Emacs?


hi. heavy emacs user (i'd 90% of done emacs) , big fan of view mail (vm), have been using many years.

however, on last months / year vm has had couple of glitches related message coding (it may receiving ill-formed messages) may or not difficult solve, prevent vm being used me. patched vm not break, know did not solve cause of symptons.

unfortunately vm not seem under heavy development (for cannot blame maintainer, because has surely done way more possibly do), or maybe maintainer making big changes , prefers release of them in bundle.

in case, know of suitable replacement view mail? switched vm rmail time ago because of treatment attachments; maybe rmail has improved on that, not know point compares vm. tried use mew years ago, unable understand wholly how worked before testing it, , did not dare make switch.

there other candidate people can recommend me?

thanks!

well there gedit, nedit, , like. if want powerful emacs , vim variants way go.

list see:

emacs person, vim appears bit convoluted, if start off using gvim transition not bad. took me less month become proficient in vim had been in emacs.
