2. Briefly explain all Client Email Program that you know.

• Mozilla Thunderbird - Free Windows Email Program

Mozilla Thunderbird is a fully featured, secure and very functional email and chat client plus RSS feed reader. It lets you handle mail efficiently and with style, and Mozilla Thunderbird filters away junk mail too.

At the same time, Mozilla Thunderbird could be more helpful with showing related information, suggesting labels or folders, for example Mozilla Thunderbird is no longer actively developed (except for security updates).

• Opera - Free Windows Email Program

The Opera email client is a slick and flexible interface that will satisfy almost all your email needs, and Opera integrates RSS feeds in this experience as well.

Its smart labels are particularly sharp and learn by example. It's a pity Opera doesn't offer something similar for oft-used replies

• Windows Live Mail - Free Windows Email Program

Windows Live Mail is a comfortable email program that lets you access IMAP, POP and Windows Live Hotmail accounts with verve and ambition to connect with Windows Live Calendar, your blog and RSS news feeds, too. Windows Live Mail offers solid spam filters, fast search and a few ready-made search folders, but it could do better helping you organize and manage mail.

• Pegasus Mail - Free Windows Email Program

Pegasus Mail is one of the most powerful, secure and generally best email programs available for Windows, but the interface could need some polishing to make its features more accessible.

• Mulberry

Mulberry is a powerful and incredibly versatile email client available for all the popular platforms. If there is something Mulberry lacks, it is simplicity.
