Hi, all...

After using Eudora for many moons, I became dissatisfied with the memory-hungry, 4.x versions and began looking for another email client with similar features. I ran across a great client called Calypso, downloadable from www.mcsdallas.com (http://www.mcsdallas.com) . The filtering is powerful and sets up very similar to Eudora's. Calypso also supports multiple email accounts along the same lines as Eudora, with all incoming mail going into a universal inbox. Or, if you prefer, you can set Calypso up with separate mailboxes for each of your accounts.

One thing lacking is support for HTML mail, but this should be in the new release scheduled for early this year. Also to be added are email templates ala Eudora's stationery, with inline macros for subject, date, etc.

It's only $24.95 to register the program, and future updates are free to registered users. Best of all, tech support is friendly and helpful, something I can't say for Qualcomm anymore. http://www.aota.net/ubb/frown.gif

I use Outlook Express because it's free and does what I want - especially showing attached graphic files with the message.

The new beta version 5 (comes with beta IE5) finally does multiple accounts well, as well as not being so picky on where you log in to get your email. It still has a bug taking too long searching for hyperlinks, but will be a contender when it comes out the gate.

Don't count on any support whatsoever from Microsoft, as with any of their products.

Funny, I prefer the Communicator browser and IE mail - so much for the suites working.
