Alternative to Outlook Office 2003
Currenty using this for my emails and address book for my business.
what is the best alternative?
I have just downloaded Monzilla Thunderbird but does not want to play (probably needs a bit of setting up)

Thanks

Thunderbird will do it, not sure about calendar though. Best bet is to migrate to Google Apps

+1 for Thunderbird and add Lightning to it for your calender.

I use office 2007 - much better once you get used to the slightly different user interface. 2003 seems archaic in comparison. I use it with Exchange so we are sort of stuck with outlook but it is actually quite a useful program.

I think you can get trial versions of outlook for 60 days from teh Microsoft site.

assuming you don't want to pay then just get Windows Live Mail http://explore.live.com/windows-live-mail basically the new version of outlook express but much better. If you do want to pay then take a look at outlook 2010
