    E-mail and newsgroups

    What does everyone here use for an e-mail program and a newsreader? Since the latest "update" the Windows Live Mail has been a pain in the butt, particularly on the newsgroup side.

    I have tried Thunderbird for the news and was not impressed.

    How many people still even read newsgroups?

    I use Agent as my newsreader.

    Windows Mail (not Windows Live Mail). WinMail has its quirks, but it's good enough for me. But they took it away from Windows 7, I understand.
