Or use The Bat! - similar to Outlook, only not written by MS. Feature rich and secure.

Not a fan of HTML email neither.

Why? I find that HTML email when used properly is better than plain text.

Easier to read on screen, easier to print and generally nicer to look at, and easier to stress points by using bold, underline etc.

But its also easier to hide dodgy links, collectable information etc. into html mails too... Whilst i prefer html mails too, it does make it easier for spam etc...

Not for the many people who use text only readers. I do use a mail reader that can handle html (Evolution) but do often check mail on my laptop and pda as well and they aren't capable of reading it.
