Which email software do you use at home?

Uh, exchange is microsoft's mailserver, not a mail client.

Don't we all use Internet Explorer or Netscape at home to check emails?!

Even on public don't we all use Internet Explorer or Netscape?!

Mainly I use Yahoo for 6MB of space but, there are more email service that offers you even bigger space for your email storage.

I use MS Outlook, but if you get Norton Antivirus 2003 Professional Edition, it scans your incoming e-mails. Its a great pieace of software, I have been using it religiously for the past 3 years.

Ditto.
Micro$oft works fine if you just keep the updates automatic...

I haven't been infected in over 3 years...(ok that just sounds wrong)

I'll speak for the Outlook / Norton AV combo too. It just warned me of a virus-laden spam message that arrived this morning.

With the amount of crap going around these days, no computer should be without anti-virus software.

Yes, that is what I prefer to use too.. pine over ssh.

However in a corporate workplace pine doesn't work too well. I use Outlook connected to Exchange at work.

(For those who use CRM and/or sales contact/flow software (Act!/Maximizer) - check out the new Outlook 2003 [TBR in 8/2003] with the sales contact/flow part built in! - AMAZING! I can't wait until we roll it out!):
