And yet again, my outlook email has been crashing as it tries to download my 200 or so saved emails from my trip. Which means I now have about 8 copies of some emails there. And that I can't go in there again till Jim Freund and I see what the effing problem is with pc anywhere tomorrow morning.
In the meantime, I can access my email through webmail but what a pain. I may have to leave outlook if we can't figure out why it does this. (I turned off the email scanner as that helped last time, but no such luck this time--it has gotten almost halfway through but no further. Blghhhh.
Glad to me home and Bella has been laying all over me and the keyboard (no, she's not the reason it crashes ;-) ).
Unpacking and catching up on stuff.

If you don't have a serious love of Outlook, do use another email client.

Thuderbird is free, from the makers of Firefox.

Eudora is a paid client -- it's not expensive, but people love it or hate it, and I'm in the "love" camp, so am not a good source of info.

Yeah...I'm on outlook 2003 and there's not even any more support for it.
I don't like the way Eudora looks. I've asked Jim to help me find something that looks like the config of outlook that I use...it might be time to move me over...
thanks
