I often use Sylpheed to read email because

it is to the point
it is light
you get the number of unread messages in each folder (interesting with IMAP and procmail)
it supports X-Face
it is easy to add new local accounts

So, far not many tips & tricks…

You can use Sylpheed-claws for more features.

Bugs

I got some problems with an imap-courier server (on Debian woody and then sarge):

Sylpheed connects to the server, but I don't get my emails.

I first get the previous list in the INBOX, all other folders are empty and then I can't get anything anymore. It goes away like it comes…

Question

When replying, if the quoted part is longer than 80 characters, it doesn't wrap the lines:

see http://sylpheeddoc.sourceforge.net/en/manual/manual-8.html (look for wrap)
