Simple, practical E-mail program fssca51 Junior Member WeAreSc Member Joined: Aug 24, 2017 Messages: 5,860 Likes Received: 3,173 Jul 27, 2020 #1 I will be deeply grateful if some kind soul would recommend a decent, practical e-mail program to replace thie goofy Google e-mail program. It should run on Windows 10. I've considered going back to MS. Outlook but hoping someone has a better idea to share. Last edited: Jul 27, 2020 Troianus Acies likes this.

I an using the basic "mail" program that comes with windows 10 software but have put a lot of limitations on what I get via windows 10 "mail" via my internet and e-mail provider.

I have it here somewhere but it mysteriously stopped working a while back as a consequence of a windows update. To use it I will probably need to have windows installed again (for about the third time).

Ive been looking at new email support as well, use GMail, but I absolutely HATE how documents, pictures are downloaded/saved/hidden. We are forced to use outlook at work, iffy, the new version requires you to go to the website. PITA in the field. I use a lot of pics/pdf files in the field, not user friendly, esp when you consider how utterly fucked 5G e is. fssca51 likes this.

The original plain jane version rocked, wasn’t fancy, but very effective. Signatures were basic. Seems like everything is form over function these days. Annoying. fssca51 likes this.

Then go to App River and get an exchange email. Your family could get them too. You control your own content, and Gopgle doesn't scan your emails.
