[nabs-l] windows live mail

[Elizabeth]

Actually, yes, I have used windows live mail, and it seems to work just fine for me. Although I think it would be nice to be able to change the color scheme just a bit, but it seems to work fine for reading and composing emails. Again, just because something does not necessarily have all the features you want does not automatically mean that it is not accessible.
