I've been a somewhat happy user of Eudora Pro for a number of years, but it's getting to the stage that the limitations are outweighting the advantages.
What I want:
A single email database
Accessible by multiple users, using a rich client
Good filtering / agents
Ability for a single client to access multiple accounts
Multiple different clients (or different user interfaces to cope with different skill levels)
Single download from my ISP for multple accounts.
Free / cheap
In a bit more detail.
I have a number of email accounts. I want to be able to download all of those from my ISP / POP3 email providers, in one hit - don't want each user to have to download their own mail
For each user, I want them to be able to view, in one place, all the mail for all the accounts that belong to them. So, for example, I might have accounts [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], etc, and my 'other half' might have [email protected], [email protected]. When I log on, I want to be able to see all of the zax accounts in one place; when the missus logs on, I want her to be able to see all her mail.
I want an 'expert' / knows what I'm doing user interface for my client and a simpler interface for her indoors.
I think what I need is an SMTP server, and some sort of client. I do not want Outlook/Outlook Express as a client - too many viruses targeted at it.
Any suggestions?
