I'm surprised Thunderbird hasn't been mentioned. It has very effective
spam filters, not that you need it with edumail, and the security,
backup, interface and reliability hits many other programs for six.
Eudora is quite a good alternative as well.

Cameron,
I set up an email account on my laptop using Microsoft Outlook. I used
the
POP3 (port 110) incoming, and SMTP (port 25) outgoing mail servers. When
setting up the email account I put in my edumail username and password
in
the login details section, and ticked the remember password check box.
The
email address is my edumail email address. I called the account 'School'
for
obvious reasons. It works like a charm. All I do is open Outlook every
morning. As per most people I don't like Microsoft very much, but I do
think
Outlook is a quality mail program.
Hope this explains it,
Jim

Can you run this by me again?
Outlook is just a client, not a mail service. Outlook accesses edumail.
