I'm glad we use Thunderbird!

Used that for damn near 15 years before I was just like "I really don't check my email enough to even warrant having a client installed on my desktop."

I just use it as an RSS reader that happens to also be able to read my email

Since the big ui update, Thunderbird looks so good

Haven't used Thunderbird in ages.

Will have to check out.

What's hilarious is the home version of office was almost wholly incompatible with flagship Office... even down to the doc types.... the icing, it was called 'Microsoft Works'... a truly terrible product

But can you connect to the Microsoft Support Usenet server?

I'm pretty sure I had to use outlook express at some point eons ago, but I seem to have blocked all memories of it from my mind. I wonder why...

I remember that in the days before I got a gmail invite, I very quickly learned to use Thunderbird for emails.
