Best EMail Client?

Worst poll ever. Where the hell is Eudora?

Anyways, Outlook 2003 FTW! Syncs with your Pocket PC, handy. Who the hell doesn't use Outlook at work. Meeting requests, exchange, etc etc.. all so easy..

I usually use pop3. What's the difference between IMAP and POP3?

"POP3 works by reviewing the inbox on the mail server, and downloading the new messages to your computer. IMAP downloads the headers of the new messages on the server, then retrieves the message you want to read when you click on it.

When using POP3, your mail is stored on your PC. When using IMAP, the mail is stored on the mail server. Unless you copy a message to a "Local Folder" the messages are never copied to your PC."

It's useful when you're not at your own comp. Pop3 is great, but what if you're not home? Thats why with IMAP I can still use webmail if I need to.

Download my mail onto my pocket pc and carry it on the go using Outlook = WIN.
