Had one of those stomach flues that makes you pray for the sweet release of death. I seem to get one of those a year now. I came >this< close to missing the deadline to update my webcomic this week. Anyways, now that the old PINE/Lynks internet account is no more and I'm usuing a graphical browser and express... I was wondering if anyone knows of a really good freeware mail and newsgroup reader because I hate Express. Very much, infact. Yes, hate it I do. Crackers (Damn crappy program from hell!!!)

G'day Crackers, > Oi what a week.

It might be worth having a look at Eudora . It's not quite my cup of tea (currently using OE/Mac shortly migrating to Mac OS X's built-in Mail app), but a lot of people seem to rave about it and the few brief goes I've had with it indicate that it's a solid, mature, and capable email program that's actively supported by it's developers. It also aligns itself quite nicely with using the unix mbox file format which you may find more to your liking. cheers, Paul.

I don't recall if you use a PC or not, but if you are used to Pine you might try PC-Pine, available at http://www.washington.edu/pine.
