How about MS Outlook Express? Yeah yeah, Microsoft product,
but it does have extremely good support for the various
protocols. It will do POP3, IMAP, SSL encrypted POP3 & IMAP,
SSL encrypted SMTP if the mailserver supports it, directory
services, etc. Plus, the big thing for me; you can add in
as many mail accounts on as many different servers configured
in different ways as you want and they all show up in a nice
expandable list on the left side. As someone who runs an ISP,
I like it so I can easily check the postmaster accounts on
over 60 domains by just starting the program and hitting
"Send/Receive All" so it goes out and checks each domain's
account.

Subject: OT: Best Winbloze Mail Client?
OK...I've had enuf of Outlook.
What is the best, most extensible Winbloze mail client? Tried Eudora 5, it
sucked butt. Pegasus Mail 3 was pretty good as it was in the past, but a
little too unusual and ugly in operation. Outlook 2000 IMHO looks nice and
has an efficient point-and-click interface, but it handles IMAP4 like crap
and as we all know, screws up In-Reply-To lines among other things.
So...what is as nice as Outlook point-and-click wise, with good support for
IMAP4, and nice and extensible (macros would be nice, and keyboard shortcuts
a must). I'd prefer noone says 'get a real OS' since we all have our reasons
for what we do. But at last after many comments I want a new mail client in
the very least. One thing I like about Outlook is the way that each message
I open is a new window, not an MDI child. That is almost a must, but if need
be I can sacrifice this 'feature' (some may call it something else).
Thankyou for your comments, and (no doubt) unneeded flames.
Brett.
