>why the downvotes?
The blog post wasn't recommending putting your credentials into ancient software. It said if you're feeling adventurous you could fiddle around with it yourself by downloading it from the archives.
- TakeBlaster16 4y agoPerhaps, but I can't imagine how you would fiddle around with an email client without adding an account, unless you just wanted to look at an empty list.
- boomboomsubban 4y agoThe few interested are already willing to go through the trouble of setting up a VM with an ancient OS. Presumably they could find some old database or virtualize a mail server for it or some other workaround I'm not imagining. I doubt anyone is going to read that and say "what a good idea, let's install Windows 98 on my hardware and muck about."
