								advanced filtering capabilities to help you

								POP Peeper  
								Having trouble juggling your different E-mail 
								accounts? This nifty freeware utility runs in 
								your Windows task bar and notifies you when you 
								have new E-mail in any of your POP3, Hotmail, 
								MSN or Yahoo accounts. 
								(For Windows). 
  
								- 
								
								
  
								
								JB Mail 3.2  
								Here's a unique, free portable POP3 mail reader 
								and mailbox maintenance utility, that gives you 
								direct access to your POP mailbox. You can view, 
								preview, delete, save, print, and even get 
								attachments directly from your mailbox. As a 
								result, you don't have to go through the hassle 
								of downloading anything that you don't want to 
								your hard drive. Handy, particularly for those 
								who get lots of E-mail. 
								(For Windows).  
  
								- 
								
								
  
								
								Outlook Messenger Express  
								If you're using Microsoft Outlook, then you'll 
								find this freeware utility very helpful. Outlook 
								Messenger Express lets you quickly and easily 
								send a message without going to the hassle of 
								loading the cumbersome Outlook program itself. 
								You can minimize it to the Windows desktop tray 
								when you're not using it, as well. 
								(For Windows).  
  
								- 
								
								
  
								
								Hikyaku Japanese E-mailer  
								Here's a free E-mail client that is capable of 
								displaying Japanese characters on non-Japanese 
								computers. Using Hikyaku, you don't need a 
								commercial character extension program such as 
								KanjiKit or Twinbridge. This is a helpful 
								program for Japanese speakers who are on the 
								road and want to send E-mail from standard PCs. 
								(For Windows).  
  
								- 
								
								
  
								
								ePrompter  
								A useful freeware program, ePrompter is an 
								E-mail retrieval and notification utility that 
								can automatically check up to eight 
								password-protected E-mail accounts for you, 
								including POP3 mail, AOL, Hotmail, Juno, 
								Mail.com and more. ePrompter is easily 
								accessible via a rotating tray icon in your 
								taskbar. (For Windows).
								 
  
								- 
								
								
  
								
								Plaxo  
								Do you have a tough time keeping your E-mail 
								address book up-to-date? A handy program, Plaxo, 
								which is available in a free beta version, 
								piggybacks onto Microsoft Outlook and provides 
								you with various tools for keeping your contact 
								list current. (For 
								Windows).  
  
								- 
								
								
  
								
								PureVoice Player/Recorder  
								This free application offers a player and 
								recorder for voice messages that you can use 
								with your E-mail software. PureVoice offers 
								excellent sound quality and its files are 10 
								times smaller than WAV files. There's a plug-in 
								specifically for
								
								Eudora software, and a separate application 
								for other E-mail products. 
								(For Windows and Macs).  
  
								- 
								
								
  
								
								Eudora  
								Our favorite free E-mail program. Eudora offers 
								loads of features, such as the ability to filter 
								your mail and efficiently organize it into 
								folders; multiple signatures; drag & drop 
								capabilities; nicknames and more. We also love 
								its sleek and elegant interface. If you use 
								Eudora, then you need to check out
								
								eMailman, which offers a big selection of 
								utilities, tools and plug-ins for getting the 
								most out of Eudora. The only quibble we have 
								with Eudora is its cumbersome search function, 
								which makes it time-consuming to find just the 
								E-mail you're hunting for. 
								(Available for Windows and Macs.) 
								
									Eudora's
									
									latest version, 6.2, is a fully featured 
									E-mail client, which is available for free 
									in "sponsored" mode (a version that displays 
									small ads). This powerful new version offers 
									such handy features as automatic name 
									completion, which lets you address E-mails 
									quickly.

								Listserv Lite  
								We've had a number of visitors ask if there are 
								any free mailing list programs available on the 
								Net. Here's one from the makers of the 
								well-known industrial-strength creators of 
								Listserv. The Free Edition is a freeware version 
								of Listserv Lite, limited to a maximum of 10 
								mailing lists with up to 500 subscribers each. 
								This version is free, as long as the licensee 
								does not derive a profit from using the 
								software. Be sure to read the
								
								usage policy.  
  
								- 
								
								
  
								
								Pegasus Mail  
								One of the Net's all-time classic freeware 
								products, Pegasus has a very strong following, 
								and with good reason. It has tons of helpful 
								features, including a spell checker, multiple 
								signatures, checking of multiple mailboxes, etc. 
								However, Pegasus does suffer from a few 
								drawbacks. We find its interface a little clunky 
								and its cut & paste capabilities are limited. If 
								you download Pegasus, then be sure to check out 
								the
								
								Guide to Pegasus Mail Add-ons, which is a 
								good collection of enhancement programs for this 
								E-mail client. (Available 
								for Windows and Macs).
