Thanks. So so far, one vote for Outlook Express. The reason I haven't
gone to this right off the bat is that since it is an MS product (with
some dubious and unknown relationship to Outlook) then if there is some
corruption in my system I wonder whether it might affect O.E. similarly.
(If there is some corruption which uninstall/instal doesn't fix, a wipe
and reload of the system may, but I'm reluctant to go to such lengths
just now...)
On another point: I did check, and Outlook's 'Save As' does allow one to
save as text. (I just tried it and it works.) Not that that is any
consolation to me....

Outlook Express is superb with Unicode. Besides:
1/ if you interact a lot with web content, it has a nice, though
minimal, facility for opening and editing web pages for emailing.
2/ it allows you to save your messages as text -- great for determining
character encoding problems. (As far as I can determine, this is not
available with MS Outlook.)
Cheers,
James
