client-side e-mail
It seems that the most popular client-side e-mail reader is Outlook, based
on the number of tools that are developed for it. But there are other readers
available as well:

.

Eudora (Eudora.com). One of the granddaddies of e-mail programs,
I've been using it for well over ten years. It has integrated protection
against spam and phishing, and a fairly powerful set of iltering tools.
he downside is that it's less popular than Outlook and has fewer
people developing for it.
. hunderbird (mozilla.org/products/thunderbird/). If you're already
using Mozilla or Firefox, you may want to take a look at hunderbird,
brought to you by Mozilla. It's a free, open-source program and, like
Outlook, it has a lot of developers writing for it. You can get an idea
of what extensions are available for hunderbird at addons.mozilla.
org/extensions/?application=thunderbird.
. Pegasus (pmail.com/). hough the Pegasus mail program is not as
well-known as other e-mail programs, it's still iteen years old. Pega-
sus is an excellent choice for older computers and operating systems
that might not be able to handle the latest and greatest e-mail clients.
It also has an extremely powerful ilter system, and it's free. If you
want very strong ilters or you want an e-mail client that gives you
more opportunity to look under the hood, Pegasus is for you.
