What email application do you use?
 
I'm kicking Outlook to the curb. Anyone got recommendations for a good POP3 email client?

MML was praising Eudora on yesterday's OTB.

I've never used anything other than Eudora.

Cleo 2005-03-06 11:30 PM

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 rather much like using outlook 2003, its got a great spam filter that works 99% of the time for me....which version are you kicking?

cheers,
Luke

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

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

Useless 2005-03-07 07:34 AM

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

Greenguy 2005-03-07 08:34 AM

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

But since that's a tad bit outdated, it's Eudora all the way for me :)

MrMaryLou 2005-03-07 08:42 AM

I used outlook express forever now I use Eudora and its well worth it :)

funbrunette 2005-03-07 09:47 AM

Eudora is great! I highly recommend it! |thumb

Jim 2005-03-07 09:50 AM

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

Joe 2005-03-07 09:00 PM

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. :(

MadMax 2005-03-07 10:19 PM

Well, my decision was kinda made for me. Windows is PMSing and not letting internet applications run properly (I hear Cleo laughing :D), 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. :(

MrYum 2005-03-07 10:50 PM

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! |headbang|

HarryM 2005-03-07 10:58 PM

outlook express |couch|

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 :)

Now, that's schweet!

Joe 2005-03-08 06:48 AM

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

Greenguy 2005-03-08 07:47 AM

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.

Evil Chris 2005-03-08 09:06 AM

Good info here. I think it's time for me to upgrade to 6.2 as well.

Gotta keep up with the "Greens'es" LOL

Verbal 2005-03-08 11:15 AM

Have any of you Eudora users tried Thunderbird yet? Just wondering which you liked better and whats different. I think I'm about to go from Outlook to Thunderbird.
