I have recently installed high speed DSL, and I need some input about outlook express as a mail client. I was on AOL, and am currently using the Bellsouth web mail account. What are the pros and cons for outlook express.

Thanks

Tim

Pro: OE is free.

Con: Like ALL Microsoft software, OE has a few security holes.

OE does not have as many features as many other mail programs, such as Outlook.

Since you are on DSL, I recommend that you install a firewall.
Try Zone Alarm. www.zonelabs.com

Thanks Chas, you always come through with the most helpful info. About Outlook, is it a free Microsoft program and/or can you recommend a good e mail client for DSL.
