Netscape Mail?
1 Answers
Hi
I use Netscape for my Browser, News and Mail client. I recently downloaded the latest version (8.1), but this seems to be Browser only. Does anyone know:
Did I miss downloading the Mail Client?
Do I need to do something to switch it on?
OR does the new Browser not have an asociated mail & new client?
I've always preferred a single application solution for all my internet browsing & mail, and very much prefer not to use Outlook Express or Internet Explorer.
If Netscape no longer does this, would Firefox do everything in a single application, or if not I see a program called Thunderbird mentioned a lot - does anyone know if this is like the Netscape Mail client?
Sorry for a lot of questions. I hope someone knows thw answer!

I personally wouldn't recommend using Netscape any more. They use the same engine system as Mozilla, but are typically slightly behind Firefox and Thunderbird etc.
You have a few options:
Get SeaMonkey, which is an all-in-one thing like you're used to:
http://www.mozilla.org/projects/seamonkey/
Get firefox (a browser alone) and Thunderbird (an email client alone):
http://www.mozilla.com
Both are good, but personally I would suggest going down the Firefox and Thunderbird route since there's much more development focus here.
