您是否曾經想過將Webmail放在桌面上？ Yahoo的Zimba Desktop不僅可以做到這一點，而且還可以通過基於Web的方式訪問您的Gmail，Yahoo甚至Exchange郵件等功能，而且還可以離線工作。 困惑？ 繼續閱讀。

Today we will look at the Zimbra desktop email client and see how well it works. I am running the Beta Version .91 (build 1344) on Vista Ultimate (64-bit). Did I mention there is a version for Linux and Mac as well?

今天，我們將看一下Zimbra桌面電子郵件客戶端，並檢視其執行情況。 我在Vista Ultimate(64位)上執行Beta版本.91(內部版本1344)。 我是否提到過也有適用於Linux和Mac的版本？

After installing Zimbra you are greeted with an easy to follow Wizard to help get everything set up.

安裝Zimbra後，您會得到一個易於遵循的嚮導，它可以幫助您完成所有設定。

Not only does Zimbra offer to get your Yahoo mail but also a wide range of other services including your ISP. Note that you will need to set up Gmail to allow IMAP

Zimbra不僅提供獲取Yahoo郵件的功能，還提供包括ISP在內的各種其他服務。 請注意，您需要將Gmail設定為允許IMAP訪問。

For this post we will take a look at adding a Yahoo email account. Setup is quite simple, just pop in a name for the account, email address, and password. Another cool feature to point out is synching your Yahoo address book.

對於這篇文章，我們將介紹新增Yahoo電子郵件帳戶。 設定非常簡單，只需輸入帳戶名稱，電子郵件地址和密碼即可。 需要指出的另一個很酷的功能是同步Yahoo地址簿。

After saving my settings it took a moment for the application to launch and already had most of my contacts and existing folders. For larger mailboxes it takes longer to sync everything up. I also noticed that I had to sync each folder individually. The user interface looks a lot like the Yahoo Mail web interface.

儲存我的設定後，啟動該應用程式需要花費一些時間，並且已經擁有我的大多數聯絡人和現有資料夾。 對於較大的郵箱，需要花費更多時間來同步所有內容。 我還注意到，我必須分別同步每個資料夾。 使用者介面看起來很像Yahoo Mail Web介面。

There are some nice features included with Yahoo Zimbra, as you would expect from any email client there is a handy calendar which you can sync up.

Yahoo Zimbra包含一些不錯的功能，就像您希望從任何電子郵件客戶端中獲得的一樣，它都可以方便地同步日曆。

There are utilities included called “Zimlets” that allow you to use Yahoo Local, Flickr, and Maps. Here is an example of Maps.

其中包含稱為“ Zimlets”的實用程式，可讓您使用Yahoo Local，Flickr和地圖。 這是一個地圖示例。

A lot of different options for choosing the way you would like Zimbra to look and act.

選擇Zimbra外觀和行為方式時有很多不同的選擇。

Similar to other clients there are pop up reminders for scheduled affairs.

與其他客戶端類似，有用於計劃事務的彈出式提醒。

Conclusion:

結論：

From what I have played with so far this is a pretty cool email client. Not everything is web based but a lot of it is so you will have to deal with some delay time while connections are made. I did not experience anything painfully slow in this beta version. This is definitely fun and easy to use and I seem to prefer this user interface to Windows Live Mail. Remember it is a beta at this time, but if you’re looking for another alternative to Outlook, Zimbra might be a possibility. The best part for me is being able to easily check my Yahoo mail along with other accounts.

從到目前為止的經驗來看，這是一個非常酷的電子郵件客戶端。 並非所有內容都是基於Web的，但是很多都是基於Web的，因此在建立連線時您將不得不處理一些延遲時間。 在此測試版中，我沒有遇到任何令人痛苦的緩慢問題。 這絕對是有趣且易於使用的，我似乎更喜歡此使用者介面而不是Windows Live Mail。 請記住，目前它是一個beta版，但是如果您正在尋找Outlook的另一種替代品，則可能會使用Zimbra。 對我來說最好的部分是能夠輕鬆檢查我的Yahoo郵件以及其他帳戶。
