Hi, We absolutely don't want the Microsoft Outlook mail program that they are forcing on Windows Mail users. I can no longer access my emails through that program. We need to know the key features of Thunderbird and if possible how it compares to the "NEW" Outlook amil. I ask the comparison in part because we mainly don't like the forced use of the "cloud" aspect to their program and apparently having to sign in to it every time I try to open Windows mail. Your prompt response is appreciated as I can no longer access our two personal email accounts through Windows Mail. Thanks Dave
