What email application do you use?

I'm kicking Outlook to the curb. Anyone got recommendations for a good POP3 email client?

I looked over Eudora many years ago, but chose Pegasus Mail instead. I've never had a problem with it at all.

yeah!

I've been using Pegasus for 7 years, never a problem with it.

For my business email client I use a contact manager. I have never used Outlook, but I'm told my contact manager is more powerful than Outlook and I never worry about virus's or trojans.

I was a long time Eudora user.

Eudora is a very good program.

The only reason that I don't use Eudora anymore is Apple started including a built-in client that is as good if not better but otherwise I would still be using Eudora.

If I had to use a PC again I would use Eudora.

Eudora good

I switched to thunderbird when I ditched IE for firefox and won't look back. If you grab the mozilla backup utility that is out there you can backup your browser and email in one shot (nice for pc rebuilds). The message filters are very nice, and of course using multiple domains and pulling from many pop servers has been a non issue.

I use Thunderbird as well. As happy with it as I can be with a mail application.

Thunderbird to the rescue. I've been very pleased with it.

The best one I ever used was the free one that came with Netscape 3.0

But since that's a tad bit outdated, it's Eudora all the way for me

Yep, Eudora is the only client to use. It does everything you would ever need.

I went through 3 different email programs before arriving at Outlook solely because of the spam support (I use Cloudmark SafetyBar).

There are way better email programs out there, but simply do not have the anti-spam support.

Well, my decision was kinda made for me. Windows is PMSing and not letting internet applications run properly (I hear Cleo laughing ), and Firefox is the only one of my browsers that's working so I tried Thunderbird and it's working too. I am now officially a Mozilla man...still gotta get windows fucking working again though.

Sorry to hear about your Windows probs MadMax

Think you'll link Thunderbird though. I changed over to Thunderbird/Firefox several months ago...both great apps...stable and safer than the MS stuff.

Be sure to install the 'network tweaks' extension for Firefox...makes this sucker mucho quick!

I updated to Eudora 6.2 the other day & they have a nice new feature for those scam emails like the ones that trick you into thinking it's from PayPal.

Notice the box that popped up when I moused over the link - nice little option

You guys have me convinced with Eudora, do you guys happen to know any good anti-spam filters for Eudora?

I recommend Mailwasher Pro for a spam filter to use in conjunction with Eudora. Run Mailwasher first and get rid of the spam waiting on your mail server, and then boot up Eudora and download the remaining messages.

progex - Eudora has a spam filter built into it called "Junk" You have to teach it what's is & isn't spam (I assume this is the case with all filters) but it works pretty well.
