Talk, Rumors, X Versus Y "Excellent open source Outlook Express alternatives are available which provide similar and additional features. Such is the case with Mozilla's Thunderbird, which is available for Windows, Mac, and Linux users. Moving away from Outlook Express is a no-brainer, as our screen shots illustrate."

Outlook sucks at syncing with IMAP folders. I've had a mess after installing Outlook 2003. Then, I couldn't set it to save my sent mail to whatever folder I wanted... maybe I'm too new to it, but didn't find an answer on the net either...

Anyway, the best mail client is mail (unix people know better ;) ).

well IMAP is nothing to write home about for starters. Of course outlook has its faults too.

If I wanted to experience the stoneage of email I'd just switch to pine personally. ;)

What's wrong with IMAP and what is a better alternative?
