E-mail Programs.

[Starshine]

I am looking for a e-mail program that has POP service ( Where I can send mail from various e-mail services ) like Gmail & Hotmail.
I currently use Windows Live Mail ( an update to Outlook Express? ) ... but I'd like something a bit better ... that is free to use.

Something that allows me to better separate my e-mail accounts ( As I have some for personal and some for future business plans )

Any ideas?

--- Edited : Also just for giggles, I'm looking for some good e-mail services I could use ( something possibly anonymous and able to be checked using the e-mail program - like the Windows Live Mail program I have )

Maybe Mozilla Thunderbird? I think that runs pretty well.

I recommend thunderbird - I used it for a while, but it didn't have a rule option with do not download from server - highly essential for me.

Hivemail? I use it when people want free email account from me.

Looks nice, but :

1. ) I need a free program. It offers 30 day trial. Wouldn't work for me.
2. ) It clearly says " Delivers to an Exchange Server" ( Something I don't have or use that I am aware of )

So, thanks for posting it - but not real helpful for me.

Derek -> I tried looking up Hivemail, but it gives an Apache page. *shrugs* ...

I may just look into Thunderbird ... seems I have used it before, and with the amount of e-mail accounts I will have, it may be useful again.

I think Windows Live Mail desktop is good, but something even more cross-compatible would be Thunderbird.
