Windows 7 has Windows Live Mail, it sucks. What are other good email clients. I have never used anything but Outlook and Express.

You know what really sucks? Lotus Notes. Laughing (use that at work)

Thunderbird is my choice.

Thunderbird, or Outlook.

However, I have a feeling you won't be 100% happy with Thunderbird if you like outlook (not express). Outlook is sadly the best e-mail client software out. With Thunderbird being 2nd.

HOWEVER HOWEVER... Thunderbird = Free. Outlook $86 if you don't have it

I'd go with Outlook if you have it...

I tried Thunderbird, and prefer Outlook Razz

Could be just what I'm used to Laughing

I have a new favorite mail client...

Simple Mail - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/5593

It is an add-on for Firefox that works alot like Thunderbird. It doesn't quite have the power of a full fledged client, but it can handle multiple addresses, filtering, signatures, blah blah blah. Main interface runs in a tab in Firefox - new messages get a separate tab... and when you close it the client will keep running, for example to check for mail every X minutes and give you an update on new mail in the status bar.

I only use Thunderbird on my main desktop now. My laptops and other PCs are using Simple Mail, with the mail to be left on the server for final download by the main desktop when I get there.

Looks good, it would be nice if it had an option to import your settings from thunderbird though.

I use Opera browser and the mail client is integrated in it already and it also doubles as an RSS/Twitter manager.
