Okay, thanks Can email and addresses from Outlook Express (or Outlook) be easily exported to it? Any compatibility problems with certain ISPs, browsers or other applications?
Did briefly check it out and apparently is some limitation in replying to emails with attachments if you wish to add commentary, or at least as of Feb. 07. If true, seems like a red flag, because don't know why you shouldn't be able to do this, so makes me wonder what else you might not be able to do or as readily as in OE. Just really, really, really want to avoid recurrent email problems. BTW, Comcast desktop doctor was worthless in solving email problems, as have been about 7 Comcast tech support persons over the past several months, just in case anyone is contemplating switching to them.
