I installed it and marked some spam messages as spam. Next thing it started marking all my incoming messages as spam. The spam filter thing is messed up.

JayJay · 11-26-2004, 12:50 AM

thanks people now to decide out of

thunderbird or Eudora
Maybe I should have made this a vote

Further comments welcome

does anyone know how to export the emails from thunderbird? I need a format c: and don't want to lose it all.

JayJay · 11-26-2004, 12:57 AM

BTW Security is a much higher priority to me then spam

JayJay · 11-26-2004, 01:00 AM

Just found out thunderbird is a Mozilla Program think I'll go with that

Good choice. Thunderbird rules.

SGS · 11-26-2004, 02:08 AM

Use both and Eudora is the best by a long way.

Here's what I use:

http://www.rosecitysoftware.com/courier/

It's not free, but it's very powerful with lots of great features to help you protect yourself from viruses and crap. It's been around long enough to be pretty solid but not distributed so widely that virus writers target it.

Illicit · 11-26-2004, 03:08 AM

thunderbird is great. I like how it lines up all your email accounts on the left so you can check them all real fast

HairToStay · 11-26-2004, 05:52 AM

Pine.

StuartD · 11-26-2004, 05:55 AM

truth be told... anything is better than Outlook Express

But I prefer Eudora. Version 6 and up is great at learning just what is and what isn't spam.

Spam filter works great for me, so far it's only given me a single false positive. You just need to be consistent in telling it what's spam and what's not.

You can go wrong with Thunderbird

Yeah, just like Netscape 7.2 which i currently use for almost several months now without any problem. Tried using Outlook for several years but they seem to fail when it comes to filtering Spams.

Eudora (paid version).

The problem I found with most MS apps is that they are too seamless in their 'active' interpretation of MIME types.

This has become the favourite playground of hackers and virus developers, because the spirit of MS technology seems to be to share all the powerful OS goodies with its apps through APIs.

This is a pretty sad situation. As a developer since late seventies, I have never seen a richer set of functions and app-accessible utilities through an OS, but the exploitation of this has made all these coveted capabilities dangerous to use 'actively'.

Trust me.

This little thingy works the best.

It's called Kaufman Email Warrior, and it works like a charm.

Drop it in a folder, start it and you'll love it.

TheBat is an awesome piece of software. It's engineered by Russians, so you know it's quality work.

The downside is that the spam filters don't work too well.
