Now</FONT></STRONG></A><BR>Columnist John C. Dvorak thinks Microsoft's Outlook
Express e-mail client is, after years of coding work by dedicated Redmondians, a
hoary mess and needs to be put to death quickly. He rolls out a whole litany of
complaints and asks you to add a few of your own. <A

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>He shares my frustration with the Outlook
paradigm. I have been using both Outlook Express and Thunderbird at home
since my Outlook died (Without warning, the pst file exceeded the size
limit and stopped working. When I tried to fix it with some utility, it
threw away most of my email). I have been leaning toward Thunderbird, but
still using Outlook Express because I am not yet totally familiar with
Thunderbird. I guess I had better speed up on my learning curve.

as his alternative OS. </FONT></DIV></DIV></BODY></HTML>
