ZDNet.com.au: Microsoft kills off Outlook Express. Dang, there goes my non-work mail/news client of choice (Thunderbird is still not ready for prime time). On the other hand, this may actually get people to look seriously at ISV-developed products, like Eudora and The Bat.

Of course, if you read the ZDNet article, it seems OE is not being ‘killed’, merely being put into a feature freeze. Of course, I’d love decent angle quoting in OE, and SOCKS support, but the current feature set isn’t too bad for something that comes with an OS install.
