I am in the process of making the move from Windows to Mac. My Windows PC was 8 years old, running XP and Outlook Express as the mail client. I really love Outlook Express. It's simple but effective and I can store and work with everything offline.
Moving to Mac, I am at a loss to find a desktop, offline mail client that comes anywhere near Outlook Express. I just wondered what others were using please?
I don't like Mail (it embeds attachments and formatting is restricted)
I tried Thunderbird but that too only embeds attachments into the message rather than actually sending the file. I also couldn't work out how to format the font and I didn't like its reliance on online syncing
I tried Postbox but that was clitchy and unstable.
Any other options, apart from spending lots of money on Office for Mac and hoping for a stable Outlook experience??!
Many thanks
