MrCharlie Posted February 18, 2012 ID:528216 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Hi, I'm new to the forum, recently installed Windows 7 Ultimate on one of my machines and found out it doesn't come with an e-mail client.I downloaded and installed Windows live mail and I hate it.....to complicated for me, I just want to send/receive my mail.Can you recommend a different program that I can use that is simple, without all the bells and whistles. I see there many out there:http://email.about.c..._email_prog.htmI do have Office 2000 cd and it should contain Outlook, that I could use if it installs on W7.Thanks....MrC Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJGoodhouse Posted February 18, 2012 ID:528223 Share Posted February 18, 2012 I would be inclined to use Thunderbird by Mozillahttp://www.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/OrSeamonkeyhttp://www.seamonkey-project.org/start/Both are Free Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
exile360 Posted February 18, 2012 ID:528248 Share Posted February 18, 2012 I too use ThunderBird (the portable version) and I find it to be quite intuitive and fairly easy to use. There are also plenty of plugins for it which add more functionality and it seems to have all of the capabilities that Outlook does (though some plugins, such as Lightening may be required).

David H. Lipman Posted February 18, 2012 ID:528261 Share Posted February 18, 2012 I suggest a program that has been around and maintained for over 21 years. It is easy, lite and very powerful. Pegasus MailSoon we expect the author, David Harris, to release a whole new version, v5.0.BTW: I don't believe Office 2000 is Win7 compliant Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I posted in the thread to see what's up. I didn't want to raise the issue. But, it has been raised. The post did come off like my fellow Jerseyite became possessed.
