Scribblings from the Mitchy Side

Ever since I've been on the internet, I've used Turnpike for my email/newsgroup needs, which is Demon's in house email/news software. I wuvs it. It's simple, friendly to use and unlike certain other programs, has never been a virus threat, simply because so few people use it.

However, Demon don't really support it any more and now, for the second time, it's failed to load. The download file from demon is clearly buggy as hell and it's finally reached the point where it flatly refuses to work any more.

Bah.

I hate learning new software *scowls*

So, bearing in mind I hate Outlook Express with the passion of a thousand burning suns, are there any free email/news programs you knowledgeable types would recommend? I use Lotus Notes at work and that's ok, so that sorta thing is fine. And if there's the option to import email from another program, that would be great, I'd hate to lose the email I've had since I did the reinstall. Again.

Thank you! :)

(On a non-bad tempered note, just got back from seeing Wanted. Eeeeeee!! 's great! Will write a proper review when not ded from squee :) )
