Use Outlook Express which comes with MSIE 6. The reason I say that is because you don't have to be a rocket scientist to use it and it should import all of your Netscape e-mail unless it has been deleted. If you have a secondary hard drive that would for example be the X:\ drive, you can tell Outlook Express to make it store e-mail into a folder like "X:\E-Mail". Since you have Word, you can enable the spell checking capability within Outlook Express.
Netscape 6.2.1 e-mail is OK and I use it for all of my e-mailing, but it is still somewhat buggy. I have 7 e-mail accounts in it and sometimes, when I close out of the program, it marks all of my e-mail as unread and gets them all out of order which I sort with the newest date at the top of the list. If I only had one e-mail account, I would use Outlook Express. If it is still buggy (I hate its newsgroup function) and the next version of Outlook Express has separate INBOX, SENT, etc. folders, I will go back to OE. You might here the Outlook Express is more likely to get a virus. That is usually because people either don't use good antivirus software such as F-Prot or never update their antivirus software. I have never been infected by a virus, but F-Prot caught one the other day for me so I didn't get infected. More than likely your last 2 weeks of e-mail has been lost.
