multiple POP accounts and therefore require an e-mail client that offers such

What are you asking me? Do I have more than one email address that I wish for
the email client to check? Yes Or do I have more than one user who will be
checking their email? NO. So far, I have set up Pegasus as a ONE USER
PROFILE. I guess I need to configure it to retrieve both of my POP email
accounts. Which means I'll have to set it up for multiple user accounts,
right? hmmmmmm

"Poco" which has won a number of awards and was mentioned earlier on this
thread. <<
Checking into that this weekend.
>> However, for ease of setup and operation, Foxmail is a model of
simplicity. The author's homepage has not been available for the past few
months, so it is becoming difficult to find a software list site that
actually has this programme on its servers, instead of a now defunct link to
the author's homepage. However, this one appears to be working:

Does the fact that the author's page is defunct usually equate with this
software not going to be stable or serviceable much longer? I'd hate to get
it, use it, like it, then have to give it up for lack of support and
upgrades. Know what I mean?

e-mail client, "Calypso". .......................... (If I'm surfing while
Calypso is doing a "mail run" a chorus of 'Hallelujah' informs me that my old

I'm not totally adverse to paying for a good client. But it has to be
GOOOOOOOD, easy and really really cool for me to shell out some moolah. But
if it's worth it, I'd pay in a heartbeat. :o)
