How to Access Outlook.com via POP in An Email Program
"People say," aphorist Logan Pearsall Smith memorably penned, "that life is the thing, but I prefer reading."
Now, people may say that webmail is the thing, but you prefer an email program? Have it read mail from Outlook.com — in real virtual life:

| How HTML Email Return Receipts Work
Five years ago, Mr. Fairbanks has emigrated from Boston, England, to Boston, New England. His home is already frequented well by the locals. Now, the Massachusetts Bay colony's general court is sending foreign traffic his way, too.
"His house in Boston," reads the order, "is the place appointed for all letters which are brought from beyond the seas;" for "the miscarriage of letters" is to be prevented.

While your main Gmail account is reason enough to open Gmail for iOS, luckily, there's place for more than one account in this epistolekothek:
›› You need not switch iPhones or log out and back in again to get to more than one account's email in Gmail for iOS: set up additional accounts in Gmail for iPhone and iPad, switch between up to five accounts easily and get notifications for all.
| From the Archives: Start Thunderbird in Safe Mode to Uninstall Broken Extensions
Everything went according to plan. More and more smoke came up, though, and things got tight. The heat was unbearable in some spots but not sufficient in others. What had gone wrong?
I think I overcrowded the pan. The steam, alas, gently stewed the filet mignon, which should have been browned.
I think I may also have overcrowded my Mozilla Thunderbird extension list — and there's the add-on that keeps crashing the entire application when I so much as launch it...
›› Mozilla Thunderbird does not start? Possibly, it's a faulty extension. Here's how you can launch Mozilla Thunderbird in a special "safe" mode that disables all extension so you can get rid of the problematic ones.
