Thunderbird?

I've tried a number of newsreaders over the years and I've settled on
Thunderbird because it's simple and easy to use. ^_^

I liked using it, until I deleted all my mail. I then went back to separate
reader.

I don't use it for Email, just a newsreader but there is a backup
program for Mozilla programs. I use Gmail and Hotmail. ^_^

I use MozBackup when I move from one computer to another. I don't have
to reset news servers, settings and preferences. If you use a number of
different machines as I do it's perfect for transferring your activities
from one to another. ^_^
