Dear friends-
I must also lament about missing CE. I have been using Apple Mail for
some years now and it is not too bad but I miss CE.
Why didn 't Apple fix or update the CE?
How does Mail stack up to TBird and others?

Well, one day I double clicked to open CE on my iBook and I got a
dialog box telling me Emailer couldn't open because of the
"connections" file being lost, or something like that (this is now
almost a year ago). I gritted my teeth and resigned myself to the
idea of "no more email on the iBook," and only did email on my G4
Quicksilver for another few months. Then I suddenly got the same
problem on the QS too. I brought the issue up to this list -- not
sure if it was when it first happened with the iBook or when it
happened on the QS. Our Great CE God Chris posted some suggestions,
which I tried, but I was never able to get it up and running again.
So, I moved over to Thunderbird.
It's been a couple days, so I should mention that the issue I was
having with TBird has been resolved. I still miss CE but unless
someone can actually come over here and fix it for me (I totally
lack the patience at this point to do any more troubleshooting of
anything computer/software, EVER...er, rather, at least for a very
long time), I'll just stick with Thunderbird. I don't love it the
way I loved CE, but it's better than Mail which is reminscent, to
me, of MicroBorg Outlook, and, it didn't cost me any money.
