The company I work for is big-ish, ~10k, and many use mutt, emacs, Thunderbird and some even use a mailing-list<->nntp with slrn.
I think it all depends on which area of work you are in. For software engineering folks it works just fine.
I for one use mutt and handle calendar invites with gcalcli, I can use LDAP lookup and HTML mails are converted using elinks and read inside mutt. If I want to see all the fanciness I just open the text/html attachment in Firefox.
- Thaxll 9y agoI have hard time believing that more that 1% of a 10k employees company use Mutt.
- pyre 9y agoThe parent to you post was responding to this: > In most big companies you can't really afford to do any email client shenanigans. So... what does the percentage of employees using Mutt have to do with that?
- rayvd 9y agoThey probably also use Outlook. That's what I do (4K employees). Used to use Mutt almost exclusively, but just became too hard and people complained about my emails turning everything to Courier. :) I still use Mutt to quickly prune emails in the AM and for writing to mailing lists. I've (sadly) gotten pretty used to Outlook and like it quite a bit. I do miss using vim to edit emails though...
