WHERE IS THE WEBSITE AT? http://www.dreammail-europe.org/

IS THE DOWNLOAD LINK EASY TO FIND? Yes

 

WHAT KIND OF PROGRAM IS IT? E-Mail Client

DOES IT REQUIRE ANYTHING ELSE? (LIKE .NET) 500MHz or up machine

IS IT A LARGE OR SMALL DOWNLOAD? 5 Mb

 

IS IT AN EASY PROGRAM TO INSTALL? Yes, the download is a zip file. Just extract the files to your folder of choice.

DOES IT COME WITH AN UNINSTALLER? No, and it doesn't need one. It's a portable app.

 

WHERE DID YOU FIND IT? http://www.techsupportalert.com/...mail- client.htm

WERE YOU LOOKING FOR SOMETHING LIKE THIS? Yes, and it was a lengthly search. Got sidetracked for hours with Pegasus Mail which I was never able to get fully working.

 

WHAT ARE YOU USING IT FOR? I have two uses for this program:

1. On a USB key for checking my e-mail on other peoples machines while traveling.

2. As the only program on a small USB key that will be given to selected members of an organization as needed so that they can make mass mailings to the 200 members of the organization without having to make any changes to their normal e-mail client.

 

WHAT WERE YOU USING BEFORE YOU FOUND THIS? Popcorn, which is a great little program, but it lacks a rich text editor.

HAS IT SOLVED A PROBLEM YOU WERE HAVING? Yes, completely

WHAT PROBLEMS HAS IT CAUSED? None so far

 

IS THE PROGRAM EASY TO USE? Yes

DOES IT COME WITH HELP FILES? No, but there is a forum ( http://forum.dreammail-europe.org/ ) that could provide some help. I didn't need any help in setting it up. It should be noted that the program is by Chinese authors and Chinese pops up here and there in the program's files.

WHAT FEATURES DO YOU LIKE OR NOT LIKE? It's a portable app. and it has full rich text support. Only a few programs do both.

WHAT FEATURES WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE ADDED OR TAKEN AWAY OR CHANGED? None so far.
