Whats wrong with the thunderbird client.

Even when I was on windows back on XP I used it. Never had a problem with it or its functionality, personally.

Nerds like us can figure it out.

But it's hardly user friendly. I'm not going to get into the minutiae, but Joe Blow could probably get it to fetch, and send, but the user interface options like font size, etc., blows. Typical nerd "It's good enough for me, RTFM, losers."

And I'm too old to fuck with things for fun. I want it to just work, and I'm not paying Apple prices for that, or supporting Microsoft's eventual SaaS subscription model, which WILL eventually happen.
