Foxmail is a freeware email client developed by a Chinese company whose main product is Foxmail Server. it has spam control, great search capabilities, one of the [imo] BEST gui's for an email client i've seen. with up to four panes of info -
Foxmail can display your multiple email accounts, the inividual folders [ie the inbox], the emails themselves, and the address book!
one of the main advantages of
Foxmail is it's plain text display of ALL emails. there
IS an HTML button on your email to switch from text to HTML display ... but displaying in the plain text format stops any embedded virus, worm, trojan or any other destructive script from running - thereby keeping your computer safe from email attack.
Foxmail's spam detection is also as advanced as any i've seen in a client.
Foxmail lets you have, check, manage POP3
AND HTML email accounts. it has a built-in proxy that allows you to download from your Hotmail account with no additional software needed. it downloads from your Gmail [Google] account, when the Gmail account is setup right on it's end. it also can download from your Yahoo account when used in conjunction with
YPOPs, the first freeware offer in this thread.
Foxmail is easy to backup as well. just save the folder it's installed to and you have Foxmail backed up.
Foxmail is also able to import or export to and from Outlook Express. emails can be saved in .txt, .eml or .msg format making your mails very accessible!! i personally have been using
Foxmail for 5+ years - with no intrusions, issues or problems!! i have 10 different email accounts including my provider, my website email, hotmail, yahoo and Gmail accouts - all managed with
Foxmail [with years of info saved and accessible]. grab this and be safe for GOOD!
Foxmail's menu system, etc. is in Chinese by default. to switch
Foxmail to english - go the folder that you installed
Foxmail to and delete the
Chinese.lgb file. next time you start
Foxmail, voila! - english!!!
