SK> 1.) UNIX based mail and FIDO based mail came before M$ "types" of mail.

SK> 2.) RESEARCH. Google is your friend. In linux you have Evolution, Balsa,
SK> Sylpheed, Kmail and several other mail packages NOT including the ever
SK> popular Mozilla Mail and Netscape Mail. Have you bothered to look at
SK> your system? You SHOULD have at leat four different packages that come

SK> 3.) Evolution is better than Outlook (otherwise known as LOOKOUT) and
SK> Outlook Express (otherwise know and LOOKOUT NOW); dig into your system
SK> and RTFM.

SK> 4.) You have the ability with a normal installation to have IMAP and
SK> POP3 by default; if you want M$ style IMAP ability, install the packages
SK> and they work right off the bat. RTFM.

SK> Linux/*NIX are the original "mail handlers" from more than 30 years
