Kdyer Kdyer KiX Supporter Registered: 2001-01-03 Posts: 6241 Loc: Tigard, OR	This is the reason why I like the http://pricelessware.org stance on this - quote: DEFINITION The Pricelessware List reflects the programs favored by members of the newsgroup alt.comp.freeware ; it is not an exhaustive list of the best available Freeware. Most of the listings are well-known programs, but there are some hard-to-find goodies to be discovered. Although most categories will list only 1 or 2 selections, a few will list 3-4 programs. There are NO Adware/Spyware programs included in the Pricelessware List. Please read news:alt.comp.freeware 's position on Adware in the following FAQ links: http://clients.net2000.com.au/~johnf/faq.html#11 http://www.ccountry.net/~jcorliss/F.A.Q./Page3.html I do like http://www.webattack.com to see what the ratings are in comparison too.. Thanks! Kent [ 09. May 2003, 22:29: Message edited by: kdyer ] _________________________ Utilize these resources: UDFs (Full List) KiXtart FAQ & How to's

However, http://www.openoffice.org is really the free one whree there are some costs involved with Sun's implementation.

Kdyer Kdyer KiX Supporter Registered: 2001-01-03 Posts: 6241 Loc: Tigard, OR	Cool.. Glad to hear it. I started to look at it with Outlook (not OE) and it imports the contacts from Outlook on a POP installation. Now, to export the message store, but Foxmail seems pretty OE-Centric. So, to export to OE and then to Foxmail. Kent _________________________ Utilize these resources: UDFs (Full List) KiXtart FAQ & How to's

Kdyer Kdyer KiX Supporter Registered: 2001-01-03 Posts: 6241 Loc: Tigard, OR	The other thing I would wish for and it has part of it is the abity to connect to IMAP Accounts. Sure, you can go to Hotmail, but what about others like Myrealbox? I will see if it has been posed as a question on their Forum. Kent [ 15.

Kdyer Kdyer KiX Supporter Registered: 2001-01-03 Posts: 6241 Loc: Tigard, OR	I thought there was a Forum on the Foxmail site. The other thing is that when you use Word as your e-mail editor, it adds a button to send which is pretty neat. However, when you uinstall the software, it still keeps it. Hmmm..
