:devil OK I've used Outlook and Outlook Express for years now and had been quite pleased with them until recently. When I compose email they are usually quite large and lately I've had problems with the client crashing and thus having to retype my emails over several times. What I'm looking for basically is a replacement for Outlook with roughly the same features as Outlook with maybe a little more emphasis on security. I've heard of various programs like Eudora, Pegasus, and The Bat and was wondering what users here would reccomend. Thanks for your help everyone.....

My favorite email client is TheBat!
It is shareware however and if you don't want to hassle with that or snag a cracked version.
I'd recommend Calypso as it has IMAP support and many freeware email apps don't.

Also Foxmail can access hotmail accounts as if it is on a pop server.

There is also a freeware version of eudora , it serves up ads in a little box on the side.

I used to used eudora ,then calypso and now thebat.
peace

:devil Thanks Rickio. I will give it a try. If I like it I'll probably buy the license for it. I don't mind downloading music because it really doesn't affect the artists as much as it does the lawyers and the industry fatcats but if software is good I'd rather pay a license fee to support them because smaller software companies depend on them for their bread and butter and usually have no way to offset those kind of losses.

Oh no, I'm eagerly waiting to see if there are any new ideas too, I just thought you would like to see the last pass. There are plenty of loose cannons wandering round lately with 20 or 30 posts who know everything and I'm hoping some of them will share things we ain't heard before.

I've looked around quite a bit, but I've never found anything quite as good as TheBat!. Supposedly Mozilla Mail is pretty good, but I've had nothing but trouble with Mozilla's mail client in the past.
Here's a link to FoxMail
http://www.webattack.com/get/foxmail.shtml
It seems pretty spiffy, does allow non-dangerous HTML, and listen to this it has its own SMTP server built-in! Meaning you don't go through your ISP's !!!
I heard of this one the other day. Haven't had a chance to try it out or find out a whole lot yet. Has anyone tried it?!?!

I have, and use it. What it looks like is a bloated outlook. It has a lot of fun things like voice mail, and pretty features. If anyone is on phone lines I think it would slow things down a lot. Ch i will send you some mail using it now, so you can see.

Ok CH you have e-mails, one with voice,and one with a animation.

I'll give a look see Hunter...Thanx

Eudora had been around awhile, and is still good and secure, but the free version places a small logo in the program. I like Mozilla's built in e-mail personally.

CHorse this incredimail looks like it's just FX. It doesn't seem to do anything you couldn't do in Outlook if you wanted to go to the trouble of working out how, but it does it for you right off the top. Unless their client is really fast or something I think they would have been better off just making an Outlook plug-in. (Geez I wonder if that's what this is?)
