> Do you ever tried Netscape or The Bat ?? > Do you try to open folder with 5000 messages ?? > How long did it take ?? Netscape is laughable! It crashes all the time and is horrid with a lot of mail. The Bat is cool-- but it doesn't handle IMAP well. The programmers admit that. Perhaps in the next version. Eudora is way too cluttered for me and the personalities are clunky. Many of my listmail boxes in Outlook Express have 5-15,000, even up to 30,000 messages and they work just fine. I tried Pegasus for a while, but it felt about three years out of date. > Please do not say people all about 'only one perfect and best > windows mailer", because there are plenty of better mailers. Please don't misquote me. I said that OE is "by far the best windows mailer I have found." And I have tried a lot of them. I will attribute your own misinterpretation to something other than nefarious motives :) OE works very well for me with a lot of messages, with PGP integration, with a number of different accounts both POP and IMAP. It is definitely the best mail program I have found on Windows. Of course, your mileage may vary, but it is quite different from Outlook. On Linux I prefer Emacs/Gnus! c
