I like it, except that it does not have a built in email back up!


One: Backup the profile - Users - username - AppData -Thunderbird - Profiles - "profile name"
Two: Use Mozbackuup - a free download

1309318 2012-10-29 08:29:00 Just to be entirely different, and just for the sake of being awkward, I use Foxmail 6.5 a fiendishisly cunning Chinese email client :)

When Internet in a Box started not to work properly because it couldn't handle Mime around 1994ish or 95ish, I switched to Foxmail 1.6 a 16 bit program for Windows 3.11, and I just stuck with Firefox ever since.

One small snag is the website is all in Chinese these days. However it is straightforward to download, and to get an English gui, just delete the Chinese language file ;) http://fox.foxmail.com.cn/

Get a bloody grip they all have a chance to read your emails but what makes you think you are so important?

1309320 2012-10-29 10:31:00 The built-in mail app in Windows 8 is good enough for me. As is the included app on Windows Phone.

As for webmail, pah to your electronic PO boxes :p
