Yep a good email client that I have been using for a while now, it doesn't play nicely with Windowblinds though (its excluded by default)

Personally, I don't see the point. Eudora and Outlook skin quite well with Windowblinds. But if WB could apply different skins to each app, THAT would be cool.

Woodbridge, can you also access web based email with it? Hotmail is the only reason I use Outlook Express right now.

WB does skin Poco but the status bar doesn't shown any information, but that doesn't really bother me that much so I skin it with WB anyway

@Jobelaca : no, only POP3 and IMAP. Poco 3 is in development atm but I don't know if web based email will be part of it.

@Rassilon : WB can apply different skins to each app as long as you tell WB which app and which skin.

I like OE, I don't like viruses. Tossup.

I've used Hotmail since 1994 and I really wish I could find a program that could access webmail.

I tried this a while back, found it to be a complete pain in the ass. But, that's just me!

I've been using this e-mailer for 2 or 3 years now and it has been flawless! It helps prevent virus infection because the attatchments are separated and stored in a different folder. Also, and I think this is big, you can check your mail on the server and decide whether you even want it or not. All I have to say about Poco would take up several pages, my experience on the pc goes back to 1981 and I,ve tried practically all of them. THIS ONE WINS HANDS DOWN EVERYTIME! I finally quit trying the others a couple of years ago.

I'll stick with Incredimail. It does everything this one does and more. Viruses?? Any good virus program will scan your email.

I use Poco because of the scripting language. I have it configured so whenever I view Yahoo Groups mail it displays a version with no ads while not affecting the original. I have another script where I click a button and it copies the raw email to the clipboard so I can report it with Spamcop and sends the email to the trash. The scripting is really quite cool and evolving nicely.

Erm . . . WB *can* apply different skins to each app. Per-app settings.
