PocoMail, by Poco Systems, is a powerful email program that's also extremely easy-to-use. The interface is intuitive and the program also supports the increasingly popular "skins" so you can alter how it looks. PocoMail does all the things most people would expect from an email program .. new messages, reply, forward, attach, and lots more. But it also does some things not found in most other email programs. For one, it won't run scripts, like VBScript, so it basically "immune" to many of the email viruses that go around. On the other hand, it does support HTML. One very cool feature is that it lets you see your email on your email server before you go and fetch it. Very slick!!
PocoMail gives you support for multiple accounts so you can use it to handle mail from different places. Another unique feature is the ability to have more than one address book! That's excellent because it makes it much easier for more than one person to use the program. Just sit down and load your own address book and you're ready to go. Another feature that I'm really impressed with is backup. That's right, PocoMail has the ability to back itself up! And restore. Beautifully done! And PocoMail as a whole is just loaded with more features than I have room to talk about. Like it's own scripting, powerful filters for managing your mail, and it even lets you see attachments without using any other program. There's a spell checker,
support for drag and drop, and the ability to have more than one "signature" for emails. And to simplify your life, it also offers you an "auto-complete" function not only for email addresses, but also for your message text. Excellent!!
PocoMail, by Poco Systems, is a powerful and award-winning email client that has all the features most anyone needs. And it has a host of unique features that set it apart from the pack. This includes things like support for skins, backup and restore, auto-complete, and much more. And, it's the only email program that I'm aware of that has a portable version -- PocoMail PE! Use that on your laptop or a CyberKey. And then, when you get back from a trip, it's a simple matter to get the emails synchronized between your desktop and your portable device. So, if you're looking for a high-powered email program that's loaded with features, yet easy-to-use, give PocoMail a try! I recommend it!
Once again, that's it for this week. These are all excellent products and well worth the time to download. I hope you'll take the time to give them a try -- I'm sure you'll like them. I'm off to look at some more great software to tell you about. And maybe to take a walk outside to enjoy the warm temperatures for a minute. But I'll be back next week with more Picks to tell you about, and I hope you'll join me then! Till then, have a great week, a wonderful weekend, and happy downloading!
