Something you should look for in an email program is the ability to check email for multiple POP accounts. That way if you have an email like mrjoe@earthlink.net and you have joe@mrjoedomain.com, then you can check each of them without having to go in and retype all your configurations.

• Email Programs for Mac

• Apple Mail: If you own a Mac this is the standard email client. It's a great program with a ton of configuration options. If you've got a Mac, this is the only thing you'll need in our opinion.
• Eudora: This is decent little mail app if you don't like to use the Apple Mail for some reason, thought it seems to have a few small limitations with managing multiple accounts.
• Entourage: If you absolutely must use a Microsoft product, or you are really stuck on using Outlook but now own a stylish new Mac this may be the way to go.

• Email Programs for PC

• Microsoft Outlook: If you own a newer PC this may already be on your machine. It's a good little email client. If you've already got it give it a shot.
• Outlook Express: You may already have this on your computer. This program allows you to have multiple email accounts. Even though it's a Microsoft product we still like it.
• Eudora: This is a versatile email program with advanced features. It used to be our favorite but they seemed to be slow with updates for Mac OS X, so we've been using Outlook.
• Mutt: This is a command line based email program. Their slogan ... "All mail clients suck, this one just sucks less." With an attitude like that we have to tell you about it.
