 I am using Windows Live Mail under the Windows 7 Operating System. 
It is okay, but a co-worker suggested that I try Thunderbird. 


Been waiting for someone else to respond since I know very little about 
winlive.  I assume that is the case with the other responders here as 
well, but, a couple of thoughts until others with more info chime in;


What little I know and have heard about windows live has been all bad... 
primarily from other friends and associates who support those who use 
windows live.


Every email solution has pros and cons, and I assume that most here feel 
they really benefit from using SeaMonkey (essentially the same as 
Thunderbird) as their email client, and most of those would probably 
tell you that it will be worth whatever pains you encounter making the 
transition.


Your email address book should be easy to import.  Personally I would 
not try to transfer the messages but rather plan on a transition period 
to use windows live to access and reference old messages and use 
SeaMonkey as your only email client.


SeaMonkey uses the same browser engine as Firefox, so, you should notice 
little difference other than websites admonishing you that you are using 
a browser they don't support... that, however, can be addressed by 
editing the browser's user agent string.

Information requested

2010-08-06 Thread George
Hello.

I know this is unusual, however I would like to know some information.

I am using Windows Live Mail under the Windows 7 Operating System.  It is okay, 
but a co-worker suggested that I try Thunderbird.

1) Will I be able to move everything that is under Windows Live to Thunderbird, 
even messages that I have read?
2) I have Firefox, would it be better to use SeaMonkey since it is a browser 
and email client all in one?

Thanks,
George
