why do you people use Outlook Express??


i have been using Mozilla Thunderbird for ages now and i highy recommend it,
it is way more secure there are soo many addons to coose from and looks
better too , and also has awesome junk mail filters.

you can download it from: http://www.mozilla.com/thunderbird/

Microsoft will have to do alot of work to get me using outlook Express again


Some people continue to use it because they feel comfortable using it, and
some people actually like it. Plus it is free with Explorer. Thank you for
the advice.


Being free with Internet Explorer is no endorsement. Mozilla Firefox and
Thunderbird are both free, as well.

Yes, some people actually do like MSFT junk. Some just stick with it
because it is all that they know, and they are afraid to try something
else. Others stick with it out of inertia. Both MSIE 6 and MSOE 6 are
old, and overdue for replacement. The replacements won't run under
Windows ME, and I am not keen on moving up to Windows XP. Something
about "Product Aggravation" that I don't care for.

Personally, my pick for email is Pegasus Mail, running behind
Mercury/32. My own domain, my own mail server, and I haven't received
spam to my domain mailbox in nearly a year; less then a dozen, or so for
the whole year last year.

My pick for a news agent is 40tude Dialog. Forté Agent, Super Gravity,
and XNews are also good news agents.
