Thanks for the input. I downloaded Incredemail and found it very interesting with the butler who announces my mail. The downside was that I was unable to input contacts from Outlook which-of course, wasn't on that computer. I then tried to work with Windows Live. I could import the contacts but the program insists on downloading a newer version but never seems to install it. Also, Internet Explorer failed in the process. I looked up Thunderbird and only found negative reviews so didn't try it. Outlook 2007 isn't a program I've purchased.

I'll never understand the negative views with Thunderbird. Every time I see one it's regarding something that doesn't make sense or is an error on the users part.

It's from the same group that makes Firefox and T-bird 3.0 is launching in a few days.

If you download Windows Live Essentials, you shouldn't have a problem installing the latest version of Windows Live Mail. It imports from Outlook Express and Windows Mail (Vista) quite easily.

I have no problem with Thunderbird, I use Windows Live Mail out of personal preferance.

Outlook 2003 - sp3

I dont plan to upgrade, since the new Office is to bloated for my liking
