Recommendation for a good email program?
Having just uninstalled Earthlink Total Access I now find myself in need of a good client email program.
Ideally a program that will import mail from several pre-existing web-based accounts including earthlink, hotmail, yahoo, gmail, etc. And of course it would be a plus if there is web-based access so I could check for new messages from the road at internet cafes, etc.
I would prefer to avoid to avoid Outlook due to security issues.
Any suggestions? A friend of mine recommended VivianMail.

I don't think Yahoo will let you import mail into a mail program unless you have a "paid" account, versus one of the free accounts. Seem to recall that was a selling point when I elected to go to the paid account 2-3 years back.
