Outlook-vs-Thunderbird, the never ending email wars…

Because I was sick of Outlook 2000, I dumped it a couple of years ago and gave the free and open source Mozilla Thunderbird a try. I got used to it quickly and never looked back, until earlier this year. Earlier this year I got a free copy of Windows Vista Business and Office 2007 […]
