Re: [EXTERNAL] Re: email recommendations
late, I am I am in replying to this message about Becky, but Eudora works with windows 10. Also, in case anyone wishes to know or are wondering, so does the old PM-Mail 2000 program from 12 years ago. :) What I don't like about Becky is it's spell checker. Routing the mouse cursor to the spell checker is the only way to find the misspelled word. The suggestions all read fine, and you can laboriously route mouse to cursor to spell them, and it is useable. Becky is quite better with Gmail, and non-standard ISPS with off-the-wall port numbers, etc. It seems to take a lot less time negotiating with your ISP than I know Eudora does, and I've used Eudora allot!! -- Curtis Delzer curtis1...@verizon.net On Fri, 17 Apr 2015 07:37:21 -0700 Dave via Talk talk@lists.window-eyes.com wrote: Hello, Those of you using Becky, do you like it?
