Hello again ... now that I'm in the 21st Century, some questions about Thunderbird... 1. Outlook express had a folder bar where I could access all my folders. 2. OE had a preview button where I had a choice of whether or not I wanted to see (open) any message. 3. In the compose window of OE, all I had to do was click the "To" button and all the names in my address book would pop up in a "Select Recipients" window for me to choose a name. Thunderbird has the option of an open sidebar with the the names in the OE address book listed (even when I don't want to see them). Thunderbird looks good (thanks, Hugh) and I'm sure I'll eventually be seeing more differences but where are the above comparable features in Thunderbird? And am I now supposed to completely delete Outlook Express? ========================= The list's FAQ's can be seen by sending an email to PCWorks-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with FAQ in the subject line.
