Which email desktop client do you use and why?

Hi there
Outlook 2010 -- but currently using Outlook 2016 during trial period. Data files are compatible so if I go back to outlook 2010 I don't lose anything.

Outlook 2013 is a DOG - I junked the whole of office 2013 when I tried it. Office 2016 much better.

Cheers

I use eMail Client on my laptop, set up to retrieve all my google mail (I only have Gmail accounts). On my mobile devices (Android phone & 10" Android tablet} I use Gmail

Mozilla Thunderbird (actually, I'm using their Earlybird builds). Mostly for their Bayesian learning spam filter. It makes a great backup to the Spamassassin filter on our main mail server. They need though to make it more friendly for touch. I'm hoping since they are (again) looking at doing this for Firefox, they'll think about it for mail.

Two that are touch friendly are TouchMail (modern app) and eM Client (desktop app). The latter has a "wide spaced" interface mode to make touch a bit easier for buttons and menus.

You do know that development of that program was stopped in 2010.

I've been using Eudora since the 1990s. I've tried other clients but all seem terrible by comparison.

Still the very best out there.

I have used Eudora Pro (7.1) since 1996. For what I use Eudora Pro, I do not believe there is another email program suitable. I now use Win Vista 64, but soon will want/need to buy a new PC.
Question: Will Eudora Pro 7.1 run on Windows 10?
From the Windows 8 forum, I note that Eudora Pro 7.1 will run with some adjustments at installation.
I prefer to purchase a Windows 10 PC if I can.

YES it does. Works with 7, 8, 10.

There is one issue in 10. Received e-mails with links within the post, should take me to my browser, Chrome. Instead, a window pops up. You will need a new app to open that. But no way to choose Chrome. Any idea?

Version 6.5.4

It's another outstanding program that I've been using for 15 or 20 years.
