I've been using #KMail for years, but as part of the larger #Kontact app (which gives you Outlook like functionality (contacts, calendar & more)). The interface has not changed over the years.
The idea of identities been different to the accounts allows you to (for example) separate work and personal. For example with each identity you can set up a different signature, and which email address / SMTP server it uses. However the setup for this does need work and is initially confusing for new users.
Note I recently tried #Thunderbird and hated it - I use keyboard short-cuts and TB's were browser-based and not email based (eg CTRL-R / CTRL-U for mark read / unread). I found no way of changing them while being #KDE, that is always an option in #Kmail.

Ah ben moi ça fait des années que je suis sur le 2€ #freemobile avec un #smartphone. J'ai du wifi ou je demande aux proches de partager leur 4G... et pour le reste du temps, les 50 Mo me suffisent pour aller chercher mes entêtes d'emails et en lire qqs uns avec #kmail, l'appli #citiz, et éventuellement un transfert avec #wise.

A noter : quand on va à l'étranger, on a droit à 50 Mo de plus !

Et pour limiter les apps, sur mon vieil Android 6 il suffisait d'être en mode "data saving".

#Update

Yesterday I started the #mail #migration using #KMail #import tool and targeting #thunderbird profile folder.

Please note that I use Thunderbird since 15 years as my favorite mail client, and I used to have 5 or 6 accounts (plus my daugthers' accounts for school). So the amount of emails to migrate, even though I'm convinced that only the essential was left, was huge... ~92 GiB!!!

Now... I feel I need to reboot my #Debian, that looks a bit unstable after 1 full day spent crawling and indexing old emails... and then start Kmail... wish me good luck!

I tried to like #kmail and the whole #KDE PIM thing, I really did, but after several months of suffering where it worked more against me than for me, I decided enough is enough.

This Outlook-level over-engineered piece of crap is getting purged from my computer, together with the #akonadi malware.

😠

Maybe I'm stupid, but I can't seem to get #KMail to work correctly. I have an IMAP server that pulls in mail from a couple outside hosts with `fetchmail`. It has a main inbox and several subfolders. I can get the subfolders to show up in KMail, but it refuses to download anything from the main inbox.

Any advice on how to make this work, or does KMail just not do that?

@lunkki #Tuta-tili on nyt luotu. Uutta sähköpostia en tosin olisi tarvinnut, oma osoitteeni on ollut jo parikymmentä vuotta webhotellissa (joka on pariin kertaan vaihtunut).

Tuta tarjoaa sovelluksen #Android'iin ja jonkinlaisen (#AppImage'na pyörivän) myös #Linux'iin. Jälkimmäinen arveluttaa, mutta kokeillaan. Kytkemisestä käytössä oleviin ohjelmiin (#KMail, #Kontact tai vaikka #Vivaldi) ei ilmeisesti kannata uneksia.
