#92Looks interesting, definitely will give it a go.
Can anyone suggest other mail clients worth trying out? I'm tired of Mail.app these days.

#94I see no mention is made of their secret access portal to NSA...
lol? This comment is a little confusing considering Opera is based on Norway. And as far as I know Opera is probably one of the better ones in regards to NSA said stuff.

#96Good. But what I want to see, is Opera web browser _without_ an email client (and all the other stuff I never use.) Opera browser badly needs some slimming down. Call me old fashioned, but I deliberately use a prehistoric email client _precisely_ because it does not know anything about active content. Barely even handles html. And I like it that way. Now if Opera's email client had a big master switch, to totally dis…
I ran a clean installation of Opera 12, and there was no e-mail client. It is actually there, but you won't even notice unless you set up an account. So to anyone who doesn't make an account it's exactly as if there was no email client.
And your comment about slimming down Opera is quite funny considering that Opera 12 with a full mail client is less than half the size of Chrome...

#97Wow, that sure is an annoying product page. Where are the details about what mail providers they support? Does it do calendering? What are the system requirements (WinXP, OS X 10.5, CentOS 5, etc...)?
What do you mean by "what mail providers they support"? Opera supports POP and IMAP. That basically means any email provider out there.

#98I'd like to hear the full story on how Opera self-destructed as a company. Someone should write a book or something.
Why do you think Opera self-destructed? They announced their quarterly financial results a couple of weeks ago, and they set another revenue and profit record. They're basically growing on all fronts, have plenty of cash in the bank, and are growing their profits.
So again, what self-destruction are you referring to?
Re: Opera Mail – standalone mail client
#99Look at all the comments under the announcement. Really sum's up how I feel as well. A selling point of Opera was the built in email client. I liked how Opera used to be a silo for a whole bunch of features. When you closed it the rest closed as well. Was a great way to turn off work. Now we have ANOTHER fairly generic stand alone email client. ANOTHER fairly generic webkit browser. If it wasn't branded with an Opera…
> a silo for a whole bunch of features. When you closed it the rest closed as well. Was a great way to turn off work. Honestly, it sounds like you want an OS running in a virtual machine. Nobody is going to pursue your ideal "monolithic productivity suite that does everything" path; it's just a plain-bad idea.
Unless of course the monolithic productivity suite is written in elisp. ;-)
