    I'm using Em Client and I love it. The free version is easy to setup and use.
    Any idea how it compares to Thunderbird? I've been trying out Outlook 2016 but I'm thinking about going back to Thunderbird. Outlook is OK, it's just more than I need for a email program.

    While Thunderbird is nice I much prefer Em Client over it. It's so easy to set up and it has more of a professional feel to it.

    I think you'll like it. It has an audible email notification that's a nice feature.

    WLM & the Outlook.com message are valid; the message is just badly timed!

    This is the issue: MS is performing an upgrade in waves of Outlook.com accounts. Unfortunately, they jumped too soon to send out this message, and it's crashing WLM if your account hasn't yet been upgraded.

    Here's the word (courtesy of Ron Sommer MVP):

    Login to your outlook.com account using a browser. Does it say Outlook.com or Outlook Mail (Preview)?


    KB3093594 should only be installed if you have an outlook.com account that has been upgraded to Outlook Mail (Preview).


    If you have more than one outlook.com account, you will have to decide if you want the accounts that have not been upgraded to Outlook Mail (Preview) to work or do you want the accounts that have been upgraded to work.



    No Outlook Mail (Preview) accounts - do not install KB3093594.

    An account has upgraded to Outlook Mail (Preview) - install KB3093594.

    Thanx for continued use!

    No way I don't want outlook! It is for BIG BUSINESS, not for an 87 year old that uses it for famiyl & friends communication!

    MS IS NO FOR RETIRED PEOPLE! IT IS FOR THE POWER USERS!

    I AM FINDING THAT THIS SITE IS FOR POWER USERS ONLY! Not for use that have a simple problem!

    If you post one you get SNEERED AT>

    Sorry but the response from the MVP is not correct. This update works in Windows 8.1, just not in Windows 10. Neither of my email accounts have been converted but function fine in WLM 2012 with the update in 8.1 so it appears whether an email account is outlook.com or Outlook Mail (preview) makes no difference. Otherwise , it wouldn't work in Windows 8.1. Hopefully, someone with Microsoft will fix the problem with the update so that it will work in Windows 10, too.

    I've been playing around with eM Client for a few hours now. So far I think I like it better than Outlook and Thunderbird. Between playing around with it and reading the eM Client forum post I'm getting it setup the way I want it.

    Good to hear. Another member mentioned it here some time ago and I checked it out. It's one of the best email clients I've used.

    Thanx for Info;

    Maybe now I can get out of the MS Doctorial Regime that I was pleased with for so many years!

    It has become unfriendly to the elderly by forcing us to use programs that are not suitable our lifestyles!
    And I speak for the residents of the Retirement home that I live.

    YES! People over 65 do use computers!
