Yes, I have tried Mozilla Thunderbird and I agree -- it's a good product.

But I think Forte Agent is even better.

We sometimes hear the refrain in these newsgroups, from some quarters,
that we shouldn't expect too much from WLM or some other "free" Microsoft
software because we are not paying for it.

...That we should buy Outlook for example if we want more.

But many of us see Outlook as slow, cumbersome and designed for business
use -- not personal use -- ergo no integrated newsreader.

We want a personal email client and newsreader -- a genuine successor to
OE.

Then take a look at Mozilla Thunderbird - email with integrated News
reader. You can even use Hotmail on it with the appropriate add-ins. And
with the Lightning Calendar extension (there are LOADS of free add-ins for
it) it is rapidly approaching the functionality of Outlook. (And don't let
certain MVPs tell you otherwise - use it and see)
