Why not use POP3 access for this?

I find this works rather well.

AFAIK, both have search features.

Indeed. Outlook has a discete search feature, as well as Search Folders (which work extremely well).

Also, most desktop search applications interface readily with Outlook.

did't realise it supported pop access. I thought it was strictly web only. thanks

Outlook with IMAP and POP3 for different mail accounts.

I use Thunderbird Pop3 with my yahoo account.

 

[mpitts]

I run an Exchange server.

I connect to it via Outlook Web Access when I am not at home.

For the Gmail/Outlook users, why do you use Outlook? Just because you don't like using a website for your email?

I use Thunderbird for my POP3 for work, IMAP for school, but Gmail for everything else. Will be using Gmail once I graduate and lose my school account.

Gmail.

pop is lame, except when you're forced to .. i.e. Comcast which I use with pop

Otherwise, for school mail I use IMAP. Webmail only for hotmail and crap where I let junk pile up.

POP3/Thunderbird

POP email with a program->Outlook Express

 

[surreal1221]

POP3, and I have a gmail account.

POP3 = Mozilla's Thunderbird.

 

[TBone48]

Thunderbird.

 

[kurt454]

Internet based for me.

Mail on the Powerbook. Outlook on my desktop. Internet based when I'm not at my own computers.

Yahoo.

I hate email, so there's no point in having a "regular" email program.

it has other stuff you can use to organize your life, like contacts, appointment reminders, tasks, etc plus you can synchronise it all with your mobile.
