| 866504 | 2010-03-12 20:10:00 | apart from having the program installed? I'm building a new pc and want to get away from using Outlook. Any suggestions on a good email program for Win 7 64x ? Thanks. |

| 866505 | 2010-03-12 20:22:00 | If you want to move away from Outlook Express, you could try Thunderbird which is also free, part of the Moliza/Firefox family. Cannot remember how but you should be able to import your existing mail into Thunderbird and it should open there ok. |

| 866506 | 2010-03-12 20:39:00 | Thunderbird isnt too bad once you get it to work. It thinks it knows what its doing (it tries to configure it) once you install it. But fails lol | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 866507 | 2010-03-12 20:58:00 | If its Outlook, ( or Outlook Express) This article (support.real-time.com) gives instructions on how to import them - into Thunderbird. | wainuitech (129) | ||
| 866508 | 2010-03-13 00:03:00 | Thanks guys.Looks like the easiest way is to load Thunderbird into my present XP and suck the files across !Then I guess it will be easier to just copy the TB files onto the new pc. My new Asus P7P55D-E Pro just arrived,so some more reading to do. |

| 866510 | 2010-03-13 01:22:00 | Setting up emails isnt the prob, its getting the smtp server info to work when you install it. So, you can send something. Its happened here with TB 3.02 and 3.03 | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 866511 | 2010-03-13 01:35:00 | If I make TB the default for emails, will Mailwasher open it instead of Outlook? | Neil McC (178) | ||
| 866512 | 2010-03-13 01:36:00 | Probably | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 866513 | 2010-03-13 01:38:00 | OK ,got the addresses transferred to TB.Now have to check with the wife to make sure she's happy about using TB ! Have already changed the classic look on Start menus back to XP default to prepare her for 7 ! Thanks again. |
