| 1409932 | 2015-10-15 23:37:00 | Thunderbird, never had it crash. Don't keep emails anyway but if I needed to, I'd 1)Save the info as a file instead 2)Use Mozbackup Outlook, had people lose emails with that too.... |

| 1409933 | 2015-10-15 23:45:00 | Just to be different, I have used Foxmail, a Chinese program, ever since Win 3.x days after "Internet in a Box" email could not handle the new fangled Mime. :) Foxmail is up to version 7.2.7 now. One snag is that Help is in Chinese. |

| 1409934 | 2015-10-16 00:00:00 | Outlook . ease of import/export to new PC's Good built in calendar & task/reminder its pretty much the standard email client in the business world (unless its old) excellent support for hosted exchange (office 365 email) Often other email clients will import old email from outlook, so thats good when you want to change brand of client other email clients are a absolute nightmare when you need to export you email to a different client, for whatever reason. But can be a bit buggy with imap (but still usable) some Email clients can have all support stopped & no new versions available without notice. This leaves you with incompatible email client that you cant export email to you new brand email client . I had this with Eudora . Some people looove incredimail :lol::badpc::badpc: I had security issues with Eudora that's whey I went to eM Client on my Orcon account.. |

| 1409935 | 2015-10-16 00:21:00 | So, there is a good reason after all why the main workhorse computer in this household runs WXP? Outlook Express just works, and has never given me any strife. | rumpty (2863) | ||
| 1409936 | 2015-10-16 00:46:00 | Good luck when one of the outlook express mail folders gets near the 2Gb limit ........ say goodbye to your emails. :-) I would upgrade from that ASAP . Also , outlook express being so old, you may have a few issues when you need to replace that PC. You may find in difficult to migrate the old email to a new PC . |

Got recovery programs here that will recover the files, but 2 GB these days is nothing for some people. Just done a repair on a persons outlook 2013, ( addins and dicky mails causing problems) They had over 7GB of mail, another person in her work, has outlook 2013, over 15GB :horrified |

I try not to let anything remotely like that happen. If there are any large attachments that I want to keep, they are removed from the email to another location, and just the text is kept in case it might be needed later. I also archive anything in the inbox more than a couple of years old. The inbox at present has about 1500 emails in it, and the inbox.dbx file is 150MB. |
