Please Suggest a good free Email Client


I want to use an email client for my gmail. I've found out that many users use outlook as their email client. So can anyone suggest a *FREE,*integrates with GMAIL, and state why. Thanks.

(I have tried thunderbird but it seems it does not integrate with gmail, but the good part is that it is free and made by the mozilla people. I'm not using it right now so any suggestions please. But i can go back using Thunderbird if any of you convince me.)

I dont use email clients , but I had tried gmail with "windows mail client" and I believe gmail works with thunderbird also.
Are you sure you were setting it up properly ?

Nothing is true , Everything is permitted.

I followed the intructions on the gmail help on setting thunderbird.

My all mail,my labels are made into folders on thunderbird. I use filters so i don't need to put labels.

And why is thunderbird very slow?

Hey silentcon!!


I, personally do not use clients, only web mail. less hassles and the


web mails today offer just about every options you need including 5 Gigs


of space should you require it.


I have a suggestion for you, if you have the time , read this newsletter from:


WindowsSecret, where you might find the answer to your query.
