I've tried a load and what I really wanted was a prog that looked and
worked just like OE, which with all its faults, has an interface which
suits me.
I've been using roundabout, but it does not seem to save panel sizes, but
one day tey'll fix that.

OT, but for an emailer check out either the latest Mozilla suite with its
emailer, or if you don't want the bulk of the whole suite, the email
program is being split out as Thunderbird. It has Bayesian spam filtering
built in which for me is a must have (at least until some anti-spam laws
are enacted.)

It is a newsreader as well, but I prefer XNews. The combo of XNews and
Thunderbird or Mozilla is rather nice. (And Mozilla Firebird for the
browser of course.)

I've been using this for a couple of days and it looks very good indeed,
though it appears very slow to start, and Dennis didn't explain about the 9
meg zipped download for an 80 kb .exe!
However give it a whirl, my experience is that replacing OE is a long and
dusty road, so the sooner you start..., I got very close to trying OE6
again but the memory of how badly it crashed when compacting DONT DO THAT
databases put me off that.
