I used to use Outlook Express.

I believe there was also an ealry version of Entourage that ran on OS9 as well. I have it at work on my OS9 Mac there, but haven't really used it.

Outlook Express was always pretty good though IMO.

I always thought the easiest solution was the mail client built into Netscape ( now Classilla) rather than messing around with the older dedicated mail applications.

Eudora was great for years but in the late 90's sometime I remember it turning to adware. I forget what version it was.

How is Eudora better then a regular email site?

Hi Tom,

All my years on Mac and I've never understood the function of an email client like Eudora.:confused: What does it do better then inbox.com or gmail.com, etc.??

Thanks,

Desert Mac

Entourage 2001 worked on Mac OS 9 and was included in Microsoft office:mac 2001. If your using MS Exchange at all there was also a version of fully-fledged Outlook for Mac OS 9 (Outlook 8.2 I believe), which although it only works with exchange, does provide pretty much the entire feature set of comparable PC Outlook versions.
