I use Thunderbird and have no problems with it. I've been using Thunderbird solidly since May 2007 when it was at version 2.0.4 or something and I'm now at the latest 3.0 version.

I will not get into all the specifics as to what i do for best performance, but i will list the 4 most important things to keep in mind.

1. Turn preview pane off. This is done from the view/layout menu or by pressing F8.

2. From Tools/Options, uncheck the load Thunderbird start page.

3. Uncheck the compose html messages in your account settings.

4. From Tools/Options/Advanced/Read, choose the radio button to open new messages in an existing window rather than in a new tab. This way you can press esc to close a message when you are done.

I may consider doing a podcast on this since people have been asking about Thunderbird and WE of late.

  Hi all,

I hear the messages over and over about email clients that every one is
having trouble with.
Any ideas of what email clients work best with we7.11 latest version?
Maybe the GW staff can suggest a list of clients that they would
recommend in order of accissability?
Thanks
Sam

this is not vista's windows mail this is windows live mail and is not
accessable to w e right now.
if more people would email
Michael D Lawler <[email protected]>
maybe they would re consider supporting live mail
or talk to microsoft to upgrade the current version so it would be
accessable with w e and jaws.
it does work with jaws but not without there scripts.

I'm wondering why Microsoft doesn't make windows mail available for
download?

I am sorry, the pure lack of good keyboard navigation in that
application
doesn't warrant such support. If Microsoft gets there act together and
provides stable keyboard inneraction to the application then I would
agree.

The folder list for one is a pain in the neck.

I would like to see Window-Eyes support Windows Live Mail as it is the
usual
email program that most people would download for Windows 7!
