[Sussex] Decent e-mail client?

[Gavin Stevens]

Hi Adam,
Thanks. I found Sylpheed at the Debian site. However, I think I 
need to install quite a few other things as well - it came up 
with a long list of missing dependencies (I think that's what 
they were called). In my enthusiasm to get Sylpheed, I probably 
glibly raced past these at the site. Ah well, try again.

Sylpheed looks good though.

Gavin.
