I loved the old Qualcomm Eudora, but I ran into some problems running it under 64-bit Windows 7. There was probably a work around, but a sighted friend kept telling me how much she loved Thunderbird, so I finally gave it a try around the time I got this computer. I love it. It's clean, simple, almost never crashes on me, sorts my mail by Email account (I have several), spellchecks as I type (although the dictionary is a little limited as is), and works terrific with JAWS version 15 in Windows 7 Pro. And, bonus, it has a conventional menu bar. A nice plus for me (but probably not needed by most people) is that I could automate the sending of form letters to my clients with a shortcut on the desktop. I've been thoroughly impressed with it, and I kind of didn't expect to be. In other words, I was a tough sell, but you'd have to give me a really really good reason to switch.

One caution: When I open Thunderbird, I have to Shift Tab once to get into the list of messages. But it's one keystroke, and now I'm so used to it I don't even notice.

Okay, I'm sick of stumbling around in Outlook.  I can't find the number of
messages in my Inbox, I keep losing mail, and the whole ribbon just doesn't
make much sense to me.  Is there another, more accessible, and hopefully
free mail client I can switch to?
