email clients

Message management software

Email clients are software applications for sending, receiving, and managing email.

Unlike webmail accessed through browsers, email clients are programs installed on a device—Outlook, Thunderbird, Apple Mail.

They connect to mail servers to download messages, allowing users to read and compose offline.

I prefer a desktop email client to checking Gmail in my browser.
