Recommend an alternative to Outlook Express?

my OE 6 isn't working and apparently can't be fixed w/o reintstalling XP so anyone recommend an alternative program??

 

control panel ---> add/remove programs ---> add/remove windows components

one of the options is "outlook express" remove the check mark and it will be uninstalled. Then go back and replace the checkmark and it will be installed again.

Just for grins restart xp between remove/reinstall

 

Outlook Express is terrible anyways, remove it and download Mozilla Thunderbird! It's free software, and lessens Microsoft's monopoly over your digital life....

try Firefox instead of IE too!

Already saw that movie and that's why I'm seeking other programs!!

 

I agree, Thunderbird is good. I'm sure you'll like the program.

Firefox is a good browser, use to be my default browser, had to put it aside due to it's tendency to hog resources. I now use Opera. It too is a good browser.

What I have posted here is just my opinion. Others may disagree.

 

I'll give T bird a try thanks!

 

Just a quick comment on this - dont use Incredimail

EVER.......

Fun to play with and sort of works ok, but almost impossible to get rid of..

 

I've downloaded Thunderbird and find it to my liking!!
Thanks for all the help!!

 

I personally prefer Thunderbird, apperantly you know why XD.

 

I've been liking Thunderbird very much---I'm trying to increase the font size in the received emails as well as those I compose myself----I find the font choices and sizes pretty limited but ok I suppose--

How might I download the Lightning add on??

 

Thanks very much!

 

Late as always!

Anyway, this DOES NOT, remove outlook express.

This just removes the icon from the start menu.

I'm also a fan of thunderbird! Been using it for a very LONG time. version 3 alpha 1 (20061114).

Beta for thunderbird 2 is coming soon.
