I'd certainly say ditch OE6, if you want the firefox equivalent it is
called thunderbird, or as someone else has mentioned Forté Agent or
FreeAgent (I used to use Agent and it was very good, but not used it in
years, so can't comment on recent versions)

I would throw 40tude dialog into the mix ( http://www.40tude.com/dialog/ )
, freeware for private users. Its the newsreader that finally got me to
switch from OE.

Thunderbird is a very good mail client, but just isn't there yet as a
newsreader imo.
