Nice one [B][O][T], and good idea Buken, I was going to ask but couldn't be arsed at the time. I've gone for outlook express but this will greatly be helpful to be as I'll switch to the one which is voted best. :)
thunderbird (though i've only just started using it)
Outlook express rules in this category!
I've been using Thunderbird for a few months now and really like it. :)
well, I'm using outlook express, but only have began to use it since I was trapped on AOL for so long, guess I could look into some of the others mentioned here B)
Just because something is popular, doesn't neccesarily mean it is the best. I hope everyone who votes also posts their choice, so we can see who uses what. ;) :)Quote:

IE6! and proud of it :D
no, I use Opera 5.12 I think ...
I agree bukem, but it's also a good idea of what would be a decent one to go far.
The majority wouldn't go for crap ... though then norton comes into the scene.
I'll try some, opinions on why you chose will be helpful to I'm sure. :)
FYI, Mozilla, Thunderbird and Foxmail are all free. I know that theoretically everything is free when it comes to software, but i actually like it when free means free. :lol: :)Quote:

I.E. 6 for my good old hotmail. :D
I've always used outlook Express I think that is one of the best ones around.
i figured wtf, its free (just limited)
thinking bout settin up an OE account for the hell of it (and more space)
Well, that is a web browser really, and not an email client. Actually, it might have been interesting to see how many people use web mail. If a mod reads this, please could they edit the poll to take this into account?Quote:

I've been using the old Netscape Messenger 4.8 -- That's part of Netscape Communicator 4.8.
I have just recently setup Mozilla Thunderbird 0.3 and I like it so far.
i just use hotmail
I use Netscape 7.0, Netscape was my first browser and I've never been comfortable with anything else B)
i just use hotmail.com
Hotmail here too.
I use Outlook, but I've heard good things about The Bat, so I'm thinking about trying it.

:) *BUMP* :)
voted for OE, also use hotmail and this http://www.fastmail.fm
well outlook express 6 is good but the ones before were shit
I've been trying Geminisoft's Pimmy.
Freeware and small enough to run from a floppy disc.
It's not bad... but I'm still looking for a better client.
Will be trying out Mozilla Thunderbird over the next few days.
Outlook Express. I also have it configured to download my Hotmail.
:beerchug:
For those of you running Thunderbird, here's a tool for minimizing it to the system tray.

I don't like email clients, they're too much hassle. I just use web-based email services such as Hotmail.
none of the above. yahoo is what i use
I have allways used Outlook (not Express) since i can remember. I have a short memory, so it might not have been that long. But i also use Mailwasher to edit the crap i dont want before i download it.
Ive tried a few other clients, but this works very well for mói ;)
Peace

You might find that if you spent two minutes configuring an email client to receive your hotmail, then it would actually be less hassle than having to enter your account details every time. :)Quote:

As webmail goes Hotmails service is really crap anyway, only 2mb of storage and spammed to death. You should check out Fastmails free service. It has 10 mb of storage, web access, virus protection, great spam protection. I use there paid service for only £13 a year and it's brilliant. :)
@JAY. Did you know that Yahoo mail has pop access? That means you could use an email client if you wanted to. Yahoo mail settings.
msn messenger, it signs me in automatically, tell me when i have a email, im sure most users of hotmail use this featureQuote:

whats the difference between outlook and outlook express?
Outlook Express is a basic email client.
Outlook also features a calender, a diary, and some other stuff for office use that i can't remember.
Is this Thunderbird chap freeware, if so does anyone know where I can get it, I fancy giving it a try.
Yes, it's freeware. :)
