Hi Kitty, Having an unreasonably severe curiosity when it comes to email clients and text editors, I've tried and/or used/purchased several of the "choices" you've mentioned here (and several more as well!). To date, TB! always has been, and remains (in my very biased opinion), the "best of the best"! :-) I'll make short comments below...

I'm one of those *not* experiencing any such problems, so while I feel really bad for what you and a few others are experiencing, I can't offer any constructive ideas at this point. > Becky -- My impression is filtering is limited I own Becky as well, and while I do like it, and think it's quite powerful, I still prefer TB! over Becky (even a 1.6.x version of TB! would be my choice over the latest Becky). Considering my personal bias, I will say that Becky is, relative to other non-TB! email clients, a *relatively* close second to TB! (but second nonetheless). > Pocomail -- Like the interface a lot Before I started using TB!, Pocomail was my default mailer for about a year. I still own it, and keep my copy updated. Lots of good ideas in it. Though I haven't had time to play around with v3 too much yet, the little I have looked into so far tells me that plain text handling is still not quite ready for prime time. Also...Pocomail has always displayed too much buggy behavior in general for my tolerances. The last truly "stable" Pocomail was, to my mind, v2.11. > Pegasus -- Don't like the interface Nor do I. Pegasus can be powerful in its own way (not anywhere near the power of TB!), but I just really dislike dealing with it. :-) > Eudora -- What I used to use up through version 4.2 and then changed > to TB. Downloaded current but haven't tried yet. The couple times I've tried Eudora, I ran the other way in a hurry. I really dislike Eudora (more than I dislike Pegasus!). > Mahogany -- Suggested to me but not tried yet. I haven't looked at Mahogany in quite a while, but it was one of the clients I went through before finally deciding on TB!. Obviously, for my tastes, it didn't make the grade, and was quickly forgotten. My conclusion: Stick with TB!, and for the time being, until someone can sort out the issue you're having with v2, go back to v1.6x. Good luck! -- Melissa PGP public keys: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]&Body=Please%20send%20keys TB! v2.01.3 on Windows XP 5.1.2600 Service Pack 1
