Some email clients make reading and writing messages more fun than others. Here are four that offer something a little different from typical apps.
OE Classic
Remember Outlook Express, and remember it longingly? Even if you have never used Outlook Express, chances are you will like OE Classic, a modernized clone of the old email staple. An easy interface, support for rich email editing, and, most importantly, fancy Outlook Express email stationery make OE Classic a fun email program to use.
