Hi PCWorld, forum users,

It's been a long time since I have visited these hallowed pages. My question as implied in the topic boxes is does anyone out there know of a decent office suite for free that also includes an email program that's easy to use? At this time I do own Microsoft Home and Office 2010 which includes Microsoft Outlook mail 2010.
The Outlook Mail program does not work well with my new Windows 8 Pro that I downloaded from Microsoft at a sales price. So far I like using Windows 8 but when I attempt to use my Outlook 2010 email with it it suddenly becomes limited. For example when I click on a link in a received email it won't open. I don't want to buy Office 365 yet because of the expense. So if any of you,know of something with email that will work better with Windows 8 please don't hesitate to answer my question.
