Subject:What software do you use for email? From:Nancy Hoft <nhoft -at- ITECH -dot- MV -dot- COM> Date:Thu, 21 Sep 1995 20:22:14 -0400
With the recent thread of telecommuting and email and so on, I
wonder what products techwhirlers use to send/receive/organize
email? I just installed Eudora Light on my Windows-based PC. I like it
better than my old TTY-type connection, but I don't like the user
interface very much. My Internet service provider mentioned a
freeware product called Pegasus, but I've had such bad luck with
non-commercial products (no support, bad documentation, and
seeminly created for hackers with lots of time on their hands) that
I'm hesitant even to try it out.
Like many of you, I own my own business and do a lot of consulting.
My time for hacking is limited, and a computer that's down is a day
without pay so to speak. And no email? I think I'd go into serious withdrawl!
I'd appreciate any comments and suggestions!
