Well, while the browser is stunningly better than Seamonkey, the mail system seems klunky... and importing is more painfull than expected. If the mail goesn't start getting better, it may be back to Seamonkey. :-(Oh Please, you actually use your web browser for reading mail? Here's a th ought.... Try a "Mail Client".... Like trying to use a web browser to FTP,

No, but I might trade it in beacuse you can''t install a stero in it... I kn I know, you'll be saying "Try a ``Ghetto Blaster'' you won't need to sit in your car to listen to it!"
Seamonkey takes less RAM than either Firefox or Thunderbird when displaying only a browser or only mail and takes less than both combined when displayin both. All three together take less ram than Evolution.
Further, Seamonkey has things that Firefox does not... such handy things as logging off of a web site etc. as well as more options you can frob without needing to go into about:config hell.
"Ghetto Blaster" has now been changed to "Boombox".

I think both are acceptable.
As is "Brixton briefcase" or "Rasta blasta".

Just use Thunderbird for your mail, then you don't need to use Opera's mail client... unless you have something specific demanding an all in one client.
I would use less RAM if I used Seamonkey as my email client. T-Bird takes m RAM than Seamonkey.

How does Seamonkey and Tbird compare to Outlook in the memory-hog department

Probably because the UI in tbird is all XUL driven, which is nice for modifications/plugins... That's probably why it uses more memory,
it's still the best imho for multiple accounts.. I use it as a
personal preference, as RAM is secondary.
