Just a tip for the Outlook 5 or 6 users : as I am using the same computer at home and at work (Sony Vaio Laptop),I once made the mistake to send a very personal e-mail to a work contact . I realized that as soon as I clicked the "send" button....too late !! I was online, and Outlook immediately sent the item ! If only I had ...  Read the complete review

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 ...  Read the complete review

In this day and age, you don’t have much choice for products like email clients. Microsoft is about it, No one else can compete with them. There are others available however, but in my opinion, Outlook Express is the way forward. Not to be confused with Microsoft Outlook, which is another email client, but is different to Outlook ...  Read the complete review

Outlook express 5 is one of those email systems that you either love or hate. It all depends on who your ISP is really. If your ISP is one which automatically sets up OE up for you (e.g. BT Internet) then you’ll generally think OE is a great programme. However, if your ISP is some other, lesser popular internet provider then you’ll ...  Read the complete review

Outlook Express is the mail program/news reader that comes bundled with Microsoft Internet Explorer. Since this is installed on the vast majority of PC`s as they are delivered this means that it is a very opoular program. Most people never bother moving onto other products just because they can`t be bothered. The biggest reason people ...  Read the complete review

Microsoft Outlook Express 5.0 is an excellent piece of software that is worth having on your computer for general purpose use. I use Microsoft Outlook Express not for its individual characteristics but for it being on my system when I installed it and had Microsoft Internet Explorer set up. However, the software is not bad at all. ...  Read the complete review

Bundled free with Internet Explorer 5.5, Outlook Express is a program which combines a mail client along with a newsreader. For a beginner, this may seem an attractive option. However, as you get more used to the software, it's faults will become apparent. Outlook Express' method of viewing e-mail and news artciles exposes itself ...  Read the complete review

Microsoft Outlook Express is my preferred email agent. It’s quick, simple and easy to use, and above all, it’s free. Currently in version 5.5, it comes bundled with Internet Explorer and is installed on most new computers. Armed with the information supplied from your ISP, your mail server details, it is incredibly easy to set ...  Read the complete review

Microsoft Outlook Express Version 5 is a brilliant little software program that lets you send/recieve your e-mails from all your existing e-mail accounts. For example you may have two or three email accounts with different companies, which would mean checking each account individually, but if you have this program you can set it up to download ...  Read the complete review

Outlook Express is a free mail and newsgroup client in one. It is a free version of Outlook 2000 which is more of a personal organiser. The software is free if you downloaded it but as it comes part of Windows now, it came as a cost. Outlook Express 5 allows you to collect mail from POP3 mail servers and send mail through SMTP servers and ...  Read the complete review

I had Outlook Express 5.0 already loaded onto the computer when I bought it. I had two views really, first when I didn’t know how to use it I thought what a rubbish e-mail tool but after being taught how to use it by my brother I actually think it’s quite good. So, I’ll tell you why I disliked it and why I now like it. ...  Read the complete review

Ok, so you are using a pop E-mail server for your E-mail. So you use Outlook Express 5.0 from Microsoft to get your E-mail for you. Ok great, but what happens when you have more then one pop server? Well then you start to realise the major disadvantages of Outlook Express. Outlook Express by appearance looks to be a well made and professional ...  Read the complete review

Microft Outlook Express 5.0 has to be one of the mot frustrating programs Microsoft have ever churned out. It seems to me that MS has not tested this utility out thoroughly enough or spent enough time in consumer research and group tests. It also feels like MS have tried to target a whole spectrum of different kinds of users (I know that ...  Read the complete review

Outlook seems to come pre-loaded on most pcs these days; it did on mine anyway. I started using it right from the off and its proved to be reliable, quick and easy to use. I still find it puzzling that a number of people that I know who also use a pc, just use web based email instead of this. Sure I also have a few web based email ...  Read the complete review

Outlook Express is a wonderful e-mail tool. I use it for all my mailboxes on NTLWORLD (my ISP). If you would like to configure your account with Outlook Express, you simply click on accounts. Then, you are asked to put in your name and e-mail address. You are then asked to put a pop3 and smtp server name. This is basically how you can receive and ...  Read the complete review

Outlook Express is a really good e-mail client. It is much easier than using hotmail or Yahoo! All you have to do is open it and it will check and download all of your e-mails. You can also have more than one account. You could have a hotmail & yahoo account and it would check both of them. I have 7 e-mail accounts and it checks all of them at the ...  Read the complete review

A couple of years ago (or a bit longer) when I was at University we had the choice of either Windows98/Pegasus Mail or Unix/Netscape, so I really had to use Netscape. Not being a real big Microsoft fan I wasnt too bothered about using Netscape but their were things but bugged me. So after years of using Netscape I start work and use a ...  Read the complete review

Outlook Must be the crappiest Email client I have ever used. Don't get me wrong it does handle multiple pop3 accounts but really that's all it has going for it. The best Email client in my opinion is YAM on the Amiga. For one it too handles multiple pop3 account and it can handle multiple identities with ease. Don't get me ...  Read the complete review
