[Blindtlk] email software suggestions

Thanks for the ideas!  I'd like to avoid purchasing something if at all 
possible.  I also don't want to change the security settings on my Gmail. 
It's working great and I don't want to exchange one problem for a new 
problem. I had heard of Eudora and checked into it, but it appears that it's 
no longer being updated.  I found something called E M Client.  I downloaded 
it and have messed with it a bit, but I'm not sure if it's just very 
different from what I'm used to or if portions are inaccessible.  My reader 
and tech guru is coming tomorrow.  I'll have him look at it with me to see 
if we can figure it out.

If anyone thinks of anything else that might work, I would be appreciative.
Thanks!
Julie

Sometimes with gmail these security issues happen because users use
legacy software which hasn't got the latest security updates.  A
possibility may be to adjust gmail account settings to allow legacy
software to be used.  This lowers gmail security and if the account
hasn't got and won't have sensitive material on it this could remove
those security setting objections from a host of email packages you'd
like to use.
