Incredimail Xe 

This client has been developed with a certified partnership with Microsoft. The visual appeal of this mail client is ornate. Paired with Eudora, Incredimail too has no support for newsgroups and is just a mail client with no organizing features integrated. Incredimail is the only client that supports one protocol-POP3 for downloading e-mail. It attracts with its animated notifications, catchy 3D effects, emoticons and sounds that it comes with. But these classy notifications may annoy you with their constant pop-ups each time you receive mail. Even so, the overall interface ranks only average since it's not as easy on the navigation and usability front. 

It impressed by identifying 196 out of 210 spam mail. That ranks it third best in this criteria. It offers an extensive range of Import/Export options from a lot of other mail clients. One feature that sets it apart from all others is that it can transfer complete data and settings transfer from one PC to another by creating a CAB file. The tool called Advanced Account Access lets you preview e-mail on your e-mail server without downloading it.

But a fresh install of this client occupies the second largest space on the hard drive (78 MB) after MS Outlook 2003's 



outrageous 125 MB.
