Okay. 

Not that keen on MS stuff myself.

What do you and others use?

This machine (7100/80, 88MB RAM, OS8.6) does four things:
1) Sends files via ISDN directly to other terminals.
2) Occasional web browsing.
3) Email.
4) Acts as a print server to an equally ancient printer.

I once tried installing Netscape communicator but it was s o o o  s l o w
that I almost lost the will to live waiting for it to start. I came to the
conclusion that this machine was far too old for the version I tried.

Basically I want an email app that:
a) Can operate with multiple mail boxes
b) Has an address book facility
c) Has a folder system or similar to arrange emails
d) Can handle attachments to Macs & PCs
e) Operates efficiently on on an aged 7100/80, 88MB RAM, 700MB HD, OS8.6
Plain text is fine by me, I have never sent fancy html emails.

I originally used a 'lite' email package supplied by my ISP when I first
started on the net but it had few features other than send and receive.

TIA

Nick
