I have used both Eudora and Outlook. I much prefer Outlook, but then I've never had many, (if any, that I can remember), problems with Outlook, like some people have had. (Although most all of the problems I've seen posted here, have simply been due to inexperience about how it works.) I don't use stationery, or even many of the 'bells and whistles' of Outlook, (a little filtering and sorting is all), but I didn't like the process for saving emails, files and pictures in Eudora. It seemed very limited and awkward to me. I only used it for a few months, because of that. Other than that, I had no problems with it, however. It's just personal preference, I think. Carol Hanson Most Eudora users have probably never used Outlook, and vice versa, so it's difficult to get an unbiased opinion. "Best" for some will be "worst" for others--depends what you want and how you use it. If you want lots of bells and whistles and fancy stuff like stationery and superior formatting functions, and probably better integration with Word or Office, and if you are sure your computer security is up to scratch, go for Outlook. I've never used Outlook, so my opinion is naturally biased toward Eudora.
