I have tried Eudora and the Bat......out the 2 The bat is the best, but I do like Outlook, and have just installed incredimails addon for it........so far so good........ foxmail is supposed to be good.........but in the end they all do the same job, its just the security question, and I think the Bat is supposed to be one of the tops

I'd use the add-on for Outlook...but I'm already using Incredimail...been using it for a couple years now...

Looks like a decent add-on....

Use Agent(www.forteinc.com).

Bad thing is, the free version doesn't do email, just nntp. But, it does have new mail notification.

i'd strongly reccomend that you overcome your boredom...

M$ prods including Outlook present the usual shitty security leaks that (it seems almost done on purpose...) are afterwards corrected by Windows Updates... and obviously as you use the OS those numerous Uncle Bill'$ nephews with strange names --- svchost, ntostkernel & wtf.. --- are always trying to call home when you're connected....

just set the configs of your firewall to asking mode for all apps trying to connect and you'll see...

IMHO you don't need anymore lil' buggers trying to report to Digiportal, Eudora, Trillian' makers & whatnot your every move...besides helping to cramp your surfing capabilities...

I personally stick to Mailwasher that is lightweighted, free, easily manageable and not curious, and then use the mail client embedded in the OS...

only my opinion of course...

By Far the best E Mail Notifier is EPrompter. It does POP#,Hotmail,Yahoo, etc. The only one I found that does. Can customize each program. You can preview the mail so if there is an exe you can read the mail and don't have to worry about opening it. You can delete it from server on EPrompter. Great way to play it safe with Outlook.
Check it out and for free:
