What is the best pop3 email client next to Outlook? Navigating between email folders in Outlook 2003 on an AMD Dual Processor / Vista ultimate takes too long. Outlook freeze for several seconds, up to 1 or 2 minutes too foten.

There are times when my Windows Live Email hogs between 50-60% of my CPU usage. It slows down my computer. I am running Windows 7. Oh, for the days when could use Outlook Express! Does anybody know why this happens or have the same problem?

I just bought a new Netbook and I looked for Outlook because I like outlook. (I like how the email I pull down sites on the machine and I like the folders and I like the way it deals with links and attachments) I see they do not have outlook. What is the best email client for people who like outlook?

I am currently using outlook express in windows xp. It’s good but has some features I don’t like any other email client?

I have XP (actually someone else’s PC) and when I do a right-click on a file and then “Send To” and e-mail recipient, I get a message saying something to the effect that there is no default email client defined.

Apparently MS Outlook was uninstalled (so that’s not the default) and in Thunderbird, the checkbox is checked to configure it as the default client.

So what gives?

How can I transfer my emails (not accounts) from Outlook Express to the new email client in Windows Vista?
Outlook Express uses big files with the dbx. extension but I can´t find it on Windows Vista wich have this new email client.

I work for a computer software company, and some of our clients pays monthly for us to send out emails to customers about birthdays, promotions, and gift cards. I just started working here, and they have asked if I know a way to write a bulk email showing our clients email rather than our own. Is there a way to send an email in outlook, or other program, in which the receivers dont see who else receives the email, and that the email comes from our clients email address.

I have a list of email addresses, approx 500. in a table format in excel. i need to transfer them into my mail client in order to send.
but I don’t want to re-type every single one, or waste time cutting and pasting.

I currently use MS Outlook and NEO (Nelson Email Organizer) to sort my email. NEO is nice, but it doesn’t do everything that I want it to.

What is the best software to organize my email? I recieve several hundred emails a day, of which maybe 20 are important. I would like a system that:
– Allows me to access a number of POP accounts

– Allows me to respond “from” a variety of accounts

– Automatically sorts emails based on a variety of custom rules (email from certain people gets treated differently)

– Allows me to categorize emails into different categories and easily access those categories (like Gmail)

– Is a client-side application or plugin (Gmail is great, but I need to be able to work offline)

– Allows fast access to a by-contact view of my mail — I need to be able to very quickly sort by sender regardless of where the email is stored. (NEO is great at this).

I don’t care if I stick with the “folder” metaphor or not. Thunderbird?
One especially-important feature would be the ability to tag a single email with multiple categories. Outlook (as I currently use it) allows categories, but I have to manually type them in each time. That’s not acceptable. I’d like to just be able to click and add an email to “personal” “to-do” and “finance” all at once, without having to type each category name out or do a lot of right-clicking around.
Mozilla Thunderbird 2’s tag feature is close but not quite there. Is there any system that has a tag toolbar that just allows clicking straight onto tags to mark messages, or to find all messages with that tag? In Thunderbird one has to open the tag button before applying a tag, and then actually search by tag later. I’d love a system that got away from the folder metaphor. I know that I’m being picky about extra clicks here and there, but they add up with hundreds of messages a day.
The save-search-as-folder thing in Thunderbird 2 is cool — that acutally solves all but 2 problems:

1 — Still takes too many clicks to tag something.

2 — Still no fast “find all messages by a person, regardless of the folder” feature like NEO.

Thanks for the good answer re: Thunderbird, it’s very much appreciated.

I mean as it being too cute etc.? I prefer a simple email client.
