Time for another Mozilla sermon! As if my previous posts weren’t enough already… 
Anyway, I read this article entitled “Friends don’t let friends use Outlook” that encourages people using the M$ Outlook e-mail application to switch to Mozilla Mail instead. The main issue in my opinion is one of security; Outlook is constantly the target of viruses and hacks, something M$ has never been able to keep up with and properly address. In addition, Mozilla Mail has some nice junk mail filters, all of the pop-up and ad blocking features that the Mozilla browser comes with, and it can handle multiple e-mail accounts, something that Outlook cannot. I know that many people don’t have a choice in the matter; I’m forced to deal with Outlook for my work e-mail. But for my personal e-mail at work and at home I refuse to use it. I’m in the midst of switching from Eudora, which is pretty good in its own right, to be fair, but it still lacks some of the features of Mozilla Mail. So what are you waiting for? Download Mozilla! If not, at least ditch Outlook for some other alternative; you’ll thank me in the long run…
