The moment I saw them trying to do this, I switched to Thunderbird.

You were using it before? Why?

Edit: yeah, fuck me for asking a simple question

The biggest reason i think. Is because it is used in most buisnesses. So it is easy to use the same email client at home for most folk.

Because I had been using MSN (which became Outlook) since 2001 and didn't really have a reason to switch.
