Hello Peoples,

I would like to explore any GUI POP3 Mail Clients available in linux
that have a spell checker

I have Slackware with 2.0.29 kernel.

Currently I have evaluated Netscape 3.01, and whilst it gives me a nice
POP3 mail client, there is no spell check (at least as far as I can
tell).

Has anyone had experience with a mail client that

1) Has POP3 client (i.e. no need for sendmail)
2) Has a spell check incorporated.
3) Has a nice GUI Xfree interface.

OK - If thats asking for too much,

I have sendmail and fetchmail downloaded - but it all seems a bit
complicated if all I have is Elm or Pine. (please - not a criticism -
just a preference)

I accept the fact that I will get criticism for wanting a GUI interface
- but I have netscape mail, and I want a similar 'look and feel' with a
spell checkker [;-).

Is there an equivalent mail client that has a nice GUI interface (with
spell check) that would make it worthwhile to switch to a sendmail /
fetchmail setup.

I would appreciate any advice.
Regards,
Col.
