I'm sick and tired of being ignored by Microsoft about all of the problems they created by FORCING Hotmail users to "switch" to the VERY INFERIOR email client outlook.  Does ANY ONE out there have GOOD experiences with a free or NOT free email program that is compatible with Windows on a PC?  I'm willing to PAY for a program where the owners of that program CARE about their user base but I wouldn't put a cent in to Microsoft's pockets for any email program they have.
