It handles all my email accounts correctly, what do you mean, Rob?
It improved with age, but I could never forgive all the signature nonsense, the lack of features, the non-standard HTML, allowing the use of Word, for goodness' sake to edit emails, etc, etc.  Full blown Outlook does make up for this by being an exceptionally good PIM...

So Thunderbird, Outlook or some sort of webmail is the best for beginners?

Ah no, for beginners, try Pegasus.  ;)  ;D

        I use Webmail because Yahoo doesn't support other stuff and besides, I'm used to it. It's rather annoying sometimes

        I use Outlook 2000 simply because I have Office 2000 Professional, so I figure why not use it.

        I am extremely happy with my Outlook as program combined with GMail as provider. For those of you out there who have GMail accounts, you should know that it is possible to use it in Outlook. For those of you interested in this, send me an e-mail.

        Outlook Express. I like Outlook more, but it's broken and I'm tired of fighting with it.

        I switched from OE to Thunderbird cos the dumb *censored* OE insisted on downloading a copy of everything in my IMAP folders whether I wanted to read it or not. When using a laptop in a foreign country with cellular data card, thats the last thing I wanted  >:(

        Also, Thunderbird claims to have adaptive spam filtering, although I think I need to RTFM again cos its not learning what I call spam very well  :-?

        PS: Thunderbird works with gmail too, in fact that's the only way to get outgoing mail to work with some ISP's, especially as Chinese ISPs don't supply smtp servers (everyone in China uses webmail, mainly 163.com)

        Even in China they have to use SMTP.  Mail doesn't get routed without it.  ;)
