Windows Mail is a disgrace

My message (shown below) for help sent a few days ago regarding Windows Mail
has been ignored.

'Anyone got any idea why my Windows mail program is so slow?
It takes half a minute for Windows Mail to open completely. My virus
checking software downloads messages before anything appears on the screen,
other than a blank Windows Mail window!

Is this because there is no solution to this? Windows Mail is getting even
slower - deleting a message takes about 7 seconds. This is ridiculous. I
since heard from others that they too are finding this email software
rubbish! Is there any other email software that can replace it?

You have five answers to your previous post. I suggest you go back and read
them.
