The consensus was that my old laptop was not really upgrade-able. Too little memory and too little hard drive capacity. So I have a new laptop with lots of RAM and drive space -- and Windows 10.
My old email was Windows Live Mail and I was happy with it, especially the ability to add any number of additional folders of any name I chose. It also handled all aspects of email from all of my various Mindspring (Earthlink), ATT, Gmail, Hotmail accounts.
As far as I've been able to determine, Windows 10 mail lacks any features except to receive and send mail and, in the case of Mindspring/earthlink, not even send email. I've installed, deleted and reinstalled these accounts to no avail. I even manually input the Mindspring info and it still won't send email.
I've downloaded the Mozilla Thunderbird install file, but thought I'd check with the Forum before pulling the trigger.
Thanks for the usual fine help!
