I have it installed, but my primary email client is Outlook Express. The reason I installed it is because my mum "uses" it; meaning she prefers it to Outlook Express, but doesn't know how to use either program, so when she gets stuck she calls me. It seems quite good. I should really make the switch myself, but I am lazy, and can't see the reason to change.

I use the portable version, as I do for most of the programs I use, it saves 'installing' them and adding more crap to the registry, and I have them available on my USB stick wherever I go... It's available here - http://portableapps.com/ along with many other portable versions of programs...

I've been using it for years, mostly because of some great extensions available. For example, TB Quick Extension, Signature Switch, TB Header Tools Extension etc.

I had a cracked version of IncrediMail with all the extras (which I loved) but got rid of it when Firefox could no longer skip their login membership to download new extras. Anyway, T-bird's been very reliable for me on two PCs for quite a while now. My favourite add-ons are; Lightning, World Weather (which I just have set for Adelaide), Emial Notification Randomiser (because I have lots of different sounds), FoxClocks & Sun Cult.

They only add-on that they don't seem to have (that I used quite a lot when I had IncrediMail) was being able to play mpg, wmv & avi in the email so you don't have to open up one of your media player apps every time...
