I've use Thunderbird in conjunction with Yahoo! Mail for 2 years. The two compliment each other nicely. I'm primarily interested in the security aspects (SSL for POP). I switch computers twice a year, but I never thought of using the Portable edition -- http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/thunderbird_portable -- until I saw the post at http://blogs.cnet.com/8301-13554_1-9770471-33.html?part=rss&tag=feed&subj=DefensiveComputing . That's the way to do it. With the size of hard contemporary hard drives, you can back up the whole enchilada for safekeeping, and take it with you when you need to switch computers.
