    What is the best email client for Windows 10 in replacing WLM?


    As you guys might experienced in the last couple of months, Windows Live Mail is becoming a mail client which is not performing as it was like before. Named that WLM is hard to sync with the MS server is one major issue and required to reset or re-register many times as new account in a week, but also you won't be able to drag and drop email messages in between accounts.

    Please comment what you guys experienced and feel and what is best solution for Windows Live Mail for Windows 10!

    :)

  2. What is the best email client for Windows 10

    A kindergarten question for most, but I've self-taught, by trial & error from the beginning.

    Using: Windows 10 Home, using MSN as homepage, look at email, Outlook.com, from there. Which is this, can you tell, POP or IMAP?

    Thank you.

    What is the best email client for Windows 10 in replacing WLM?

    I use the Outlook 2016 as my primary Email client. I also use Mail, Thunderbird, web based Email like Comcast, Centurylink, and others.

    But Windows Live Mail is a free program where as Outlook 2016 is part of Office 2016 or Office 365 and is not free!

    If by "MS server" it is meant Microsoft Exchange Server, I've noticed over time and various postings that most people had the best "luck?" using Microsoft Outlook [part of Microsoft Office] with it.

    I had the same problem after using WLM 2011 for years. I went with Thunderbird with Calendar add-on. Very simple to learn and use. No account configuration problems for any of 3 accounts that I use, imported address books and folders, syncs pretty fast, good alerts and like the tabbed feature. And best of all, FREE.

    This one is almost an Identical clone of Outlook, Free, Integrates with things like GMAIL etc too and works on Linux distros as well as Windows.

    The eM client is certainly a good suggestion IMO, except the free version handles maximum 2 accounts.

    I'm still suspecting that WLM 2012 is having compatibility issues with Windows 10, particularly when syncing with MS's mail server. After extensive tests, eM does has syncing problems of Calendar and Mail too.

    I would go with eM Client. I've noticed some inconsistencies with Windows Live Mail 2012 since upgrading to Windows 10. Slow starting up at times, Mail Notification sounds doesn't always play or it's delayed. Occasionally my font size would change during composing. So I switched to eM Client and haven't looked back since. No more WLM 2012 for me! For link to download and try eM Client see post #3

    So far I tried, eM client, Thunderbird & Mailbird. Thunderbird has lots of options, but it's dead, plus has ugly interface. Mailbird is nice looking mail client, but lacks features. So I chose eM client. So far very good. Just one thing doesn't work: If you set for it's shortcut "start minimized" in Windows 10, it still won't start minimized. But I think they gonna fix it in the future. Anyway, not a big problem.
