Does Mozilla have an email client?

[Doordie]

I am trying to find an email client that I can use on my home PC to get my work email. The work server is IMAP. I use Outlook for my personal email and I don?t want to mix business with pleasure. Right now I am using Netscape 6.2 and I hate it! I attempted to install Netscape 7 and it crashed on me. I didn?t even want it, but I haven?t found any other options. Can anyone help me out?

Thanks

Can't you make two accounts in Outlook and get the mails seperately?

I have over 50 files I need to keep my work email organized. I also need to use VPN to connect to my work email server. I think it would make things very confusing even if I knew how to set it up. I think I?m going to give mozilla a shot. Thanks for the replies.

Yes Mozilla has an email client that is pretty nice IMO but it does have memory leaks.

Memory leaks? Is that a performance issue? Could you elaborate on this for me please?

Well I used to leave Outlook open 24/7 for email. I just hated how slow it was so I went on a mission to find something else. Mozilla was the only email client that could check multiple pop accounts and keep the main seperate without filters AND without different personalities like Euroda uses.

Anyways, if I leave the Mozilla email client running 24/7 then it will eat up 300MB of memory in a matter of about 8 hours. If I then close the client, the memory is released. Since I like the speed of the client and useability I decided to keep it anyways. Now I run a program called POP peeper that polls all my email accounts to let me know when I have mail. When I have email I open the mozilla client to read it or if I see it is spam, I just delete the mail on the server with POP peeper.

Thank you Codewiz!

Do you know If mozilla will work with an IMAP email server?

Yes it does work with a IMAP servers, I am using it myself because of that reason and it is a nice clean email client, I am considering totally getting rid of outlook

Opera 6.x also has an email client. If you like small and quick, it may be for you.
