You can't use it with yahoo.com domain name. yahoo.co.uk etc. work. They didn't give pop3 for yahoo.com. Weird, but what to do. :(

But it's easier when you get notified that you have new emails whenever they arrive - most importantly for ADSL users.

Yes That's a very useful feature which other mail clients don't have.
I'm also using Outlook 2007

Believe me, I have a weired mail client... - Internet Explorer... :P:P:P He he... well, it's sort of not wrong to say so... WLM alerts as soon as a new mail arrives n I just have to click n it'll go to my inbox by opening a new IE window.... And I use IE only for that purpose 'cause I do browsing in FF... he he.. So, ultimately FF becomes ma mail client.. how nice.. :P:P:P ;) :lol: :yes: :P

I only use gmail, so my web browser (Opera) acts as my email client. :lol:

I signed for an windows live account, but deleted it the same day. Gmail looks ok for me. But anyone can try to convince me to convert to hotmail. Try

I'll convert to hotmail if I can chat with friends having gmail account on windows live messenger

Well, I moved to hotmail because I could get an E-mail address with just my name... without any '_'s, and all that... I never got that chance with any other web mail service (free... ;))... I too use the broser to check mail.. like you,, WLM takes care of informing me if ny new mail...

Don't you people know the difference between client and service? Client is an application like outlook, thunderbird etc. If you don't use a client, then say that you don't use one. That's enough.

hehe you got a cool nick to go by :lol:

A unique nick will always get you an email address, coz it's unique and no one else came up with the same idea. Using real names are no use, always someone out there got it. :(
I'm hoping for a solution get im for both gmail and hotmail at once (yahoo messenger/windows live works for both im services yahoo and hotmail) I can't force friends in gmail to shift to hotmail or those in hotmail to gmail (everyone has their choice). I prefer gmail and those who use windows live messenger are lost to me :(

from eudora.com
Qualcomm ceased sales of Eudora on May 1st.

The Paid mode commercial versions of Eudora are no longer available as of May 1st, 2007. The Sponsored mode versions of Eudora continue to be available for download. An open source version of EudoraŽ is being developed by Mozilla and will be free of charge.

Eudora got acquired by Mozilla Foundation.

So why won't you use something like Pidgin... Register your gmail address as a .net passport... Tada! You can use your single gmail id to chat with pals that use gtalk (or simply gmail) and WLM and Yahoo.. ('cause MSN ppl can chat with yahoo too.. ne) ;)

tried many clients like Thunder Bird, Eudora, FoxMail & The Bat whn i gt ADSL sometym back... but nothin beats gud 'ol MSO Outlook 2007... (can't say old yet...):D the only contender it has is The Bat... but this client has a major flaw.... no HTML Templates (upto date)...

First, I didn't know that any thing other than @hotmail.com could be used with windows live messenger. So thanks for informing me. :yes: :)

But still the problem stays, Let's say I signed an account using a gmail account, I can use it to chat with friends using WLM and yahoo, but I can't access people using gmail at the same time (chat or view contact list). It's a problem with the protocol. To access gmail buddies, I'll have to use gmail/Google Talk or a seperate account in pidgin. (I deleted pidgin and installed GTalk few days ago.)
passport > WLM > hotmail/yahoo buddies
gmail > Gtalk/gmail > gmail buddies

what I want is something like this:
service(protocol) > client > hotmail/yahoo/gmail :(
just like yahoo is accesible with WLM and hotmail is accesible with yahoo messenger.

I'll be using only one email account. But still I need to access two protocols which are incompatible with each other, needing sperate clients :(

Well, I don't think microsoft will wish to make WLM users to cross chat with Gmail... Mmm.... yeah, u shd hv seperate accounts in pidgin, but both with the same address ne... So only one address.. and can chat with all ur buddies... :yes:

Even through AMD can unleash snakes into intel's top secret research labs (dark side of AMD :lol:) I can't do anything to m$. :(

I'll keep with gmail and forget hotmail buddies for now. They will have to convert to gmail to chat with me. Maybe if I change heart, I'll reinstall pidgin and set 2 accounts.

Mozilla Foundation is going to set a new subsidiary for Thunderbird (like Mozilla Corp. is for Firefox)
http://www.linuxworld.com/news/2007/091807-thunderbird-mozilla-email.html?fsrc=rss-linux-applications

I hope they will merge codes from Thunderbird and Eudora, the end result will be a better email client and serious challenge to dominant MS Outlook :)

from wikipedia:
A pidgin is a simplified language that develops as a means of communication between two or more groups who do not share a common language, in situations such as trade. Pidgins are not the native language of any speech community, but are instead learned as second languages.[2]
