Thunderbird is good but slow and I would possible like to go to Outlook
but it will cost $70 a year. What are you all using for your email
program and getting the newsgroup. Pretty sure Andrew is doing what I do
but maybe not for all email.

For newsgroup access, I use Thunderbird. It works fine for me. I've seen
no reason to use it for email, even though I could if I chose to.

Hm. I use Thunderbird for email because the built-in features cover what
I need. For newsgroup (usenet) access on Windows I use a very old
shareware programm called Agent, in combination with a local
installation of a NNTP proxy (and cache) called leafnode, accessible
only on my internal network at home.  My netnews provider is
News.Individual.NET, costing me 10 EUR per year.
