We don't have enough arguments here.... <g>
I see that thunderbird's deprecated for RHEL 7, and they recommend
evolution. I've certainly had some annoyances in the last couple-three
years with t-bird. So, what are people's preferred mail tools, other than
t-bird (or maybe mutt or pine.... <g>)?

I suspect that even if they discontinue it completely there will always be 3rd party rpms for it. As for me, at home I use mutt, at work, on a FreeBSD box, I use mutt and thunderbird, because it's so easy to make filters with it. -- Scott Robbins PGP keyID EB3467D6 ( 1B48 077D 66F6 9DB0 FDC2 A409 FA54 EB34 67D6 ) gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys EB3467D6

And if you tweak the options to advance when you delete or archive, surprisingly easy to use. -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell at gmail.com

That said, I?ve had more issues with Evolution with it trashing the datastore of it?s messages than T-bird, so I?ll be a little annoyed with having to deal with that for my users if that still happens.... -- Gary L.

He provides the latest Firefox and Thunderbird among some other useful stuff such php. I often have Firefox and Thunderbird updated on my CentOS 6.5 systems before my wife's laptop. -- Paul (ganci at nurdog.com)

I don't think it will be a huge issue - Thunderbird is still in Fedora so it should be relatively easy to rebuild for RHEL7. Hopefully EPEL will pick it up.
