I tried Thunderbird but it’s got a lot going for it. I just want something simple and minimal Preferably a native app rather than something built with electron I use Arch Linux

The upcoming (recently released) thunderbird version might be what you’re looking for! It’s not yet in most official repos though.

I really like thunderbird so far, thank you for the suggestion, is there a way to get email notifications even while the client is closed tho? seems like I only get notifications if I keep it perma open.

I usually just keep it open on another desktop. But if you really want a tray icon, there are utilities that allow sending arbitrary programs to the system tray. I havent used it for a long time, but I remember using kdocker successfully in the past.

I’ve never used it myself, but I’ve heard a lot of people use something called birdtray to do that

I’ve tried it, doesn’t seem to work, thank you though.
