Does anyone know any good email client out there,
I imagine something like messenger. Show you a list of contacts…
doubleclick and type your email, and it goes thru…
no asking about configs or whatever pop servers…
I’m trying to download “The Bat” now…dunno if there is a perfect email client out there rather than the outlook express.

Do a search in the archives. I remember there’s a thread about the best email client.
Oh, I’ve done it for you lazy bones!

I got this link from iris’s post in the first link above.
I use Mozilla Thunderbird:
mozilla.org/projects/thunder … notes.html
It’s only at version 0.5, but is very stable (I’ve never had any problems with it). It includes built in Junk mail detection, can be localized to Trad. Chinese, supports multiple email accounts, works under Windows/Linux/MacOSX, and is also pretty configurable.
Avoid foxmail at all costs. It puts itself into everything on your PC, even MS Word.
It’s made in China in case you were wondering.
I’ve just installed Yet another email client (YAMC) and The bat.
see how they works… in a few days…
thanks for the response…

Mozilla make great products. Thunderbird is easy to use and loads and executes faster than Outlook Express. Their Firefox browser is also the bee’s knees.
Yes indeed! I’m a Firefox convert and I’m spreading the word. The best thing about it is you can open up ten or more pages at the same time. It makes surfing much faster. I could never go back to IE. Thanks to those who helped me see The (Firefox) Light. 
For email I just use Yahoo - it’s safer keeping addresses and other stuff on a server than on your PC which may crash at any m
Over at Download.com there’s a whole bunch of free email clients.
ePrompter 2.0 allows you to have all your email accounts in one place (yahoo, hotmail, POP etc). It’s very popular.
Mailtraq also seems pretty good.
I’ve just downloaded firefox and thunderbird, ready to join the club…
firefox themes is awemazing…
I hope I could switch the language interface without having to install two different version.

Welcome to easy surfing! Tabbed browsing is so much easier.
the ctrl + B and ctrl + T is very useful…

I’m also a fan of Thunderbird, but for creating .html e-mail which it does an admirable job of doing. However for a person who sends a lot of list-based missives, the inability to hide a distribution when sending keeps me from using it full time.
One of the nice things about Thunderbird is that it’s available for Mac, PC and Linux.
I’m really looking forward to checking out Entourage 2004 when it ships in May or early June. The project manager and other enhanced functionality have me piqued my interest. If anyone has a line on the beta, please PM me.
For the unitiated, more info can be had here:

Ctrl+ + and Ctrl + - for larger and smaller text.
