[Ham-Computers] Windows 7 problem (?)

[Philip (KO6BB)]

Hi,
I use Mozilla Thunderbird on my Win-7 machines.  Works well.  Similar to 
O.E, except that the newest version now has "Tabbed" Email, which I like 
a lot.  Naturally there are differences.  I Have MS Mail on my wife's 
Vista laptop.  Probably the closest thing to O.E. you will find, 
available for free download from MS.
