[nabs-l] managing email

[Chris Nusbaum]

Hi Antonio,

I mainly use Keymail, which is the email program built into my 
BrailleNote, or the Gmail Web interface.  I find myself using the 
BrailleNote more for emails, mainly because I don't like Gmail's 
grouping of emails into "conversations," or threads, in the Web 
interface.  I can't easily reply to a particular email in the Web 
interface, but can only reply to the email at the end of the 
thread.  I've tried Outlook, but it seemed a little confusing to 
me.  Hope this helps! Happy new year!

Chris

Merry Christmas and a happy and prosperous new year!

opportunity, blindness can be reduced to a mere physical

Hello,

I'm wondering how some of you find a way to manage email most
effectively.  What one program do you find fits most of your 
needs?

I find myself using Thunderbird on a windows XP machine, and 2 
windows 7
setups.

I have outlook express on the XP machine, and use Mac OS mail 
program at
times.

I have the option to use Outlook 2000 and Outlook 2007, but I 
remember
not liking Outlook for one reason or another.  I would set it up 
with my
gmail accounts to see what added features I can get out of the 
2007 one,
since it is newer and bound to be more feature-rich.

I often mail from the iPhone.

This almost infinit number of options is daunting since each 
program
sorts messages differently, has its own addressbook, and so on.

I have yet to be able to find out how I can purchase a Microsoft
Exchange account which may be the most logical solution to my 
problem.
Quite frankly I've only gotten general information and 
instruction on
setting one up.

Any thoughts?

Antonio
