Both alpine and aerc are also great tui email clients! I find them both somewhat easier than mutt, rube that I am.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I wish aerc had a way to pull mail in background. It's a bit tiring to wait for it to refresh my mail on start when I want to check it. Otherwise it's the easiest tui mail client i've ever used.
I'm not a huge fan of Thunderbird but after years of trying everything I still can't find a better alternative. Definitely the least bad option out there.
Luckily Thunderbird is slowly and steadily improving. I hope that it keeps that trend!
FYI: kmail does support office365 + exchange, the thing about the kontact suite is its akonadi DB dependency and all kde deps required. It's like anything kde you install, brings a bunch of other stuff, usually not anything you end up using...
However I do like how kmail integrates with local gnuPG, rather than Thunderbird's librnp, which I end up replacing with Sequoia Octopus librnp...
