alternative to Outlook
Hello y'all. I have used MS Outlook for many years ( currently 2007 version) and have, by and large been happy with it. It suits me. however I have got increasingly annoyed with it being sloooow to open in Windows 7. I thought it might be my AV ( Eset) hogging processor time at boot, so I switched to Webroot, which is cloud-based and doesn't need to download AV sigs at boot - but that did not help. I have run the MS diagnostic several times and it has not found any problems. I have disabled RS Feed and other options that I never use anyway, but the problem remains, so I thought perhaps I would try something else for a change - but I can't find any other desktop mail client that will give me personal folders, independent of the mail account(s), of which I have three. I thought Windows Live might do so, but any folder I create in that has to be tied to one of the accounts, and that is not what I want. Any ideas please?
