Does anyone know a good mail client other than Microsoft Outlook? My Outlook has been giving me trouble recently. I can't delete messages, and messages refuse to acknowledge they've been read.

The downloadable hotmail client is pretty good, although it only works with hotmail things i believe.


Mozilla Thunderbird is very good.

Windows livemail can be used with other email providers, I use it myself when I can't be bothered waiting for Outlook to load.

So now Outlook refuses to open at all for me. This is the error message I'm getting

Cannot start Microsoft Office Outlook. Cannot open the Outlook window. The set of folders cannot be opened. Errors have been detected in the file C:/Users/Sean/AppData/Local/Microsoft/Outlook/Outlook.pst. Quit Outlook and all mail-enabled applications then use the Inbox repair tool (Scanpst.exe) to diagnose and repair errors in the file...

I can locate the Scanpst.exe but I can't locate the aforementioned Outlook file...Any suggestions anyone?

*Edit* Hm, never mind. I seem to have fixed it by instead of searching for said file, I just typed the string into the repair tool .. we'll see if this works

I use Thunderbird and it has just about every feature you would want in an email app and it's free. It has lots of configuration options and add-ons. It supports multiple mail accounts simultaneously if that's what you need.
