Dave, try the free Mozilla Thunderbird. Lots of keyboard shortcuts, quite screen reader friendly, and provides the usual features like that of OE, but with lots more. Download it at http://www.mozilla.org. Hope this helps. P.S. I think Andy may find this useful too if he doesn't want to be nagged by that message each time he closes his Outlook Express.
