Advantages: Cool email

Disadvantages: Cant think of one

When your family are scattered all over the world, its hard to keep in touch at a reasonable price.
Phone calls long distance and international are very expensive.
Now I can send a letter electronically for free.
I do this via Outlook 5.
Outlook 5 is an email package that is well known throughout the internet.
It is available as part of most computer deals from major shops or as an add on from a software outlet.
When It starts up it shows you if you have any email messages unread. Much easier than checking your inbox manually.
When you open up Outlook, it autmatically looks through you preferneces for mail locations and checks for incoming items. It also sends any items you have held back.
The best bit is that it connects up to pop3 email addresses.
That means you can retrieve your hotmail messages directly from hotmail.
This is very handy if you have multiple email addresses.
The layout is very simple and you can soon get the hang of it.
It has many benefits over online email systems.
Firstly, you can prepare messages offline. This saves you time and money by not being forced to be connected while composing.
Secondly, your messages are stored on your PC making it more controllable. No worry about space hungry server managers deleting important stuff if you dont visit it every 10 days.
Thirdly, it connects up to online email systems via pop3 so it does what they do anyway.

I would not be without Outlook. Its simply the best
