Hi Guix,

1.
I got to know that Thunderbird spies on us and collects data.
Is that the same in Icedove, as a one to one copy?
Or are in Icedove some features abandoned?

2.
which graphical E-mail package do you use?
What would you suggest?

3.

Evolution,
Geary (no pgp)
KMail,
Kontakt - (KDE) probably works only on a KDE Plasma desktop I guess
and it seems not be packed for Guix yet.
Claws Mail freezes said somebody


I need a graphical overview of folders in my E-mail package.

In Emacs:
Mu4e,
Mutt (no pop, imap),
Gnus
in all of them there are no folders available.

Are there possibilities to create folders?


Gottfried

In IceDove on my GUIX system, the "privacy and security" tab of the 
general settings has the "Allow Daily to send technical and interaction 
data" checkbox irrevocably switched off and greyed out, with the message 
"Data reporting is disabled for this build configuration".  That seems 
like a hopeful sign.

Hi Gottfried!

I can't help you with the hunt for a new MUA, but

Link?  Most programmes collect data.

If Guix's Icedove spies on anyone, that's a bug which needs to be fixed.  There should be no need for anyone to find an alternative.

What does "MUA" mean:
