Just be aware that, if there is something dodgy afoot, there's a chance that email from that account could be intercepted by a third party (actually, there's almost always a small risk of this)--so be very careful if you're dealing with confidential information, like banking details.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2949589573125647543.post-37664255638016550312011-03-29T16:25:48.406+11:002011-03-29T16:25:48.406+11:00yeah, course

For those of us who were part of the 16-bit console craze*, she's more of an icon than <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ei0xNeDCbRA#t=1m14s" rel="nofollow">Michelle Yeoh & Cynthia Rothrock</a>. Putting her in a feminist poem was about the coolest thing I could think of**.<br /><br /><i>*Carmageddon, released on PC in about '97, would be the last game I ever got into--brilliant stress reliever that it is.</i><br /><br /><i>**Could I get to read it, someday, do you think?</i><br />---<br />As for the question of email management--I'm guessing you also want something that:<br />1) Is a single application with a point 'n' click interface that's easy to install, configure and use. <br />2) Will access web-mail accounts via POP/IMAP/SMTP, as well as storing a copy of everything on your hard-drive.<br />3) Is NOT a full blown mail server (see points 1 & 2).<br />4) Will work on Windows 7.<br />5) Is inexpensive and preferably free.<br /><br />My first thought is to have a go with <a href="http://www.mozillamessaging.com/en-US/thunderbird/" rel="nofollow">Mozilla Thunderbird</a>. If that doesn't cut it, you might have to think about ditching simplicity and using a split client/sever setup.
