Can you recommend an email client?
I a considering Outlook and Thunderbird, are there any others that you can recomend?
I currently use 4 email accounts for various reasons. The client must be able to handle all 4.
This most important thing!
I would like this client to be able to use cursive fonts!
Thank you  | My System Specs |

I would go with Outlook as it can handle multible e-mail accounts (I currently have 3 in my Outlook 2003). I also maintain a club e-mail list and Outlook handles that with ease.
As I have an older MS Office and Outlook, and can't afford the $$ for Office 2010, I recently installed Windows Live Mail, Thunderbird and Eudora. None of these came close to Outlook and dumped them all. | | My System Specs | | Computer type PC/Desktop

Yes, you just need to install the font(s) first prior to them being available in the fonts dropdown box. Free cursive fonts - FontSpace

Outlook is good and it's what most people are comfy with since it's been a staple of Windows. Or rather it was.
I was surprised that Win 7 didn't come with Outlook or even Outlook Express.
I miss using it, but I didn't have the $$$$ to spend on it, so if you're in the same boat, you can go with Thunderbird or a couple other E Mail programs. | | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Dell Hell oh Well
