Geary como alternativa Linux a Windows Mail
Actualizado el
Nuestra opinión
Geary is a solid replacement for Windows Mail if you want a simple, conversation-based client on GNOME. It handles multiple IMAP accounts well and offers fast search, matching Windows Mail's lightweight feel. However, it lacks the basic calendar features Windows Mail provided. If you rely on .ics files or integrated scheduling, you will need a separate calendar app like GNOME Calendar. For pure email users who prefer a clean, modern interface without clutter, Geary works well. It is not ideal for power users needing advanced filtering or POP3 support, as it focuses primarily on IMAP.

Abrir tus archivos de Windows Mail
Geary does not natively import Windows Mail's proprietary storage format (EABX files). You cannot simply open a Windows Mail database in Geary. To migrate, you must export your emails from Windows Mail as .eml or .mbox files first. Geary can then import these standard formats. Calendar files (.ics) are not handled by Geary, so you will need to import them into a dedicated calendar application like GNOME Calendar or Thunderbird.

flatpak install flathub org.gnome.Gearysudo apt install gearysudo apt install gearysudo dnf install gearysudo pacman -S gearysudo zypper install gearyPreguntas frecuentes
Does Geary support POP3 accounts?
Geary primarily supports IMAP accounts. While some POP3 functionality may exist, it is not the primary focus and is less robust than in dedicated clients like Thunderbird. For reliable POP3 support, consider Thunderbird instead.
Can I use Geary with Gmail or Outlook.com?
Yes, Geary has quick setup options for major providers like Gmail, Yahoo, and Outlook.com. It works well with these services using standard IMAP and SMTP protocols.
Is there a way to back up my Geary data?
Geary stores data in your home directory, typically under ~/.local/share/geary. You can back up this folder to preserve your mail and settings. There is no built-in export-to-file feature for the entire database, so manual folder backups are the standard method.
