I bought a new computer for my shop. I used to using Outlook Express  That isn't compatible with my new computer. I need a simple program to get my email. Any input?

When Outlook Express went away I looked around for a substitute, I've been using Thunderbird for about 2 years now, works better than Outlook Express ever did. http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/ |
| So installed Thunderbird. It automatically setup my email account retrieving the server setting from Time Warner. Thunderbird says that my incoming and out going email servers are not encrypted and that it is a security risk. Should I worry? How do I fix this if its on Tie Warner's end? |

SO I contacted Time Warner. Here is what they said: Thank you for contacting Road Runner technical email Support. As per your mail I understand that you are unable to access emails from the email account configured in Mozilla Thunderbird. I understand your concern. I will provide you the information in this regards. I would like to inform you that RR email accounts uses POP servers but not IMAP. So I assume that the email can't be encrypted. Am I correct? Just how bad is running without encryption for my email? |
