Okay, since when is outlook free? As far as I know, you have to buy office
to get outlook. And don't get caught like I did. They sold me a student
edition that didn't have outlook. But yes, windows live mail is free. Pam.

Hi Larry,
You might consider the Email program known as Becky. yeah, a strange
name for a program, but no worse than Eudora, which by the way, I
have been using for the last Zillion years.
I did download Becky, and it does act some what similar to Eudora,
although it has folders like Thunderbird too.
Becky will cost you $40, where WLM and Outlook are probably Free.
Becky has two settings that need to be Unchecked before Window eyes
will read properly.
If you go to the Window eyes web site, and run a search for Becky,
you will find what I found. Once these two settings are turned off,
Becky does seem to work well enough.
Guess it just depends on whether or not you want to pay money, or use
a Free program.
Since the Spell Checker is quite important for my use, I like Becky
as its Spell checker is much like Eudora.
As for the rest of Becky, I am still attempting to feel my way
around, so don't have much to say about the rest of the program.

Hello again listers!
OK, I, up to now, was never concerned with the use of another email client,
was frankly happy with Eudora for something like 14 years, but now have
been dragged kicking and screaming into using Thunderbird. It is not going
too bad so far, but still have lots to learn.
As some of you will remember, I have been having trouble subbing to Yahoo
lists with Comcast, so had to sign up with Gmail hoping for better luck.
Now I find out that Gmail apparently doesn't like Thunderbird, it is time
to experiment with at least one other email client.
Thought I'd never have to ask, but how does one go about getting WLM, or
Outlook. I think I saw Outlook on my system when looking through the apps
menu, but what about WLM? Also, which is easier to use with WE, or may be
even more important, which is easier to adapt too, and has the most
essential features.
I know, much of that is subjective, but please give it your best shot
<smile>.
Anyway, if anyone would like to reply off list, that would certainly be OK.
Thanks much,
Larry
