[...] three months ago, I had problems with Thunderbird. It would just fail to connect to the SMTP server, so I couldn’t send eMail. No problems [...]

Ouch. Webmail. Years ago, before many people had any kind of webmail, I actually looked into having a webmail application created that could be marketed.

I like Thunderbird. Outgoing mail is working again. Don’t know what happened. Maybe it was a 24-hour bug.

Nope, no infections, otherwise I doubt my other eMail programs would have worked!

Weird thing is, when incoming eMail is down, you actually miss spam because it’s the one thing that comes in often enough to let you know eMail is working. If that makes sense.

Otherwise, I would like the spam to just go away. Ugh. Even with spam filters, there is so much garbage.

But, not having outgoing eMail is hardly ever cool!

I tried Thunderbird, but didn’t like it. It didn’t pull in all my personal folders, so I’m stuck using the web client for Yahoo!, MSN, and Google.

Wow, is your computer infected? I use thunderbird for one of my e-mail addresses
(my highly secretive real one). I use g-mail and have never had a problem with it.

I can think of so many reasons why not having email would be cool…
