So TB! is in CNET's top4, huh? The ratio of 96:4 is meaningless as you
have to discount the massive advertising (IncrediMail) and
preinstalled-on-most-machines (Outlook Express) factors, along with
the fact that most of the 96% have never heard of any alternatives to
IncrediCrap -- in contrast to the 4%, most of whom only came to use
alternative products after having suffered at the hands of Outlook and
its ilk. The 96% figure would be much lower if these people gave other
products a try.

Your feedback from last week about what e-mail clients you use showed
an overwhelming preference for IncrediMail and Outlook (48 percent
each), with the remaining 4 percent using PocoMail, The Bat, and
Web-based e-mail.

ELEGANT E-MAIL
Sifting through the thousands of reader e-mails I get each week, I am
consistently delighted by the vast array of text styles and
backgrounds. Reading a missive in 10-point Courier followed by a
message in 24-point Monotype Corsiva (italicized and bolded, natch)
is visually shocking, but I really appreciate the variety. E-mails
with backgrounds, whether they contain rainbows, puppies, or bikini
girls, provide some insight on the character and taste of the sender.
Your feedback messages are being generated by a variety of e-mail
clients, with IncrediMail figuring prominently among them. I tried
out IncrediMail recently and was very impressed--its functionality
mirrors that of Microsoft Outlook Express, and it's entirely
free. So here's the question of the week: Which e-mail client
do you use, and what do you most like or hate about it? Let me know
