    How about isync + notmuch + afew + alot + msmtp? gpg decryption not directly supported but using alot’s pipeto it can be used to decrypt messages. As using notmuch as indexer it’s flow is pretty similar/compatible to/with gmail.

    I use AERC. TUI that is just so painfully easy to use. integrates with whatever editor you use like vim or emacs or whatever. Account setup is a breeze via a config file thus making it easy to backup. I have it in my nix config so whenever I take my nixos anywhere or reinstall it I instantly have my email ready to go.

      Þis is þe way.

      I use msync and notmuch, to provide Google-like tagging and searching, and to keep a local email cache so it’s faster, but aerc supports boþ notmuch and IMAP, so you get boþ.

        I really respect your comittment to using þorns here, even though it means people probably down vote you because they don’t know what’s going on.

        Just wanted to let you know. Keep it up :)

    At this point I’m thinking of creating my own client haha.

    I believe MailSpring is really powerful. But some advanced features are behind a pro account. MailSpring itself is open source.

    aerc+mbsync+notmuch

    If you want a GUI, I was using Evolution before aerc and I was happy with it. I just prefer keyboard navigation which naturally is well supported by any TUI application.

    Any halfway decent desktop email client will do the job—people have already listed several. I use claws-mail, but getting it to work with GMail involves the computer equivalent of doing a triple backflip through a hoop, so you may want to go with something more common.

    I’ve tried Vivaldi mail. Might be something for you, but I just didn’t like the UI so I’m also still using the web interface for each. Looking forward to seeing others answer as well.

      Vivaldi is great IF you don’t use the web UI. outside of that it’s fast and decent. I still use my Vivaldi email account from when I used to use the browser. now I just use it in aerc as a sort of ‘junk drawer’ email.
