It might not be the best e-mail program in the world, but it's not broken.
Is yours?

Fix what?

With the release of Vista, OE is basically on battery-operated life support
with no feeding tube. While any security vulnerabilities will continue to
be addressed as long as the OS in which OE is running is supported, MS is
not spending any resources on improving OE or fixing well-known bugs. Nice,
huh?

Yes, it is . . . on four different computers. It must be restarted
regularly to keep working.

Out of the blue I get "This message is no longer available" on every message
I try to read. As soon as I close the program and restart it everything
works for a while.

Life is to laugh (or so I'm told). However, I've oft pondered WHY Microsoft
expects its customer to have a sense of humor beyond and above what's
reasonable! Over and over again. And, too, why the public accepts paying
for, and being dumped with, these beta products from Microsoft.

Regards.
