Don't like the idea of Windows potentially being able to look at all my private info. Thoughts on a good email client that would work with Windows 7?

Thunderbird
None that would work with the operating system you don't want to use.
Thunderbird works okay? Saw it got 2 out of 5 stars in some reviews.
Thunderbird Version 3.1
It’s free and it’s, by far, the best real email client I’ve ever used (I hate webmail).

I use thunderbird.
I use Thunderbird as my email client. I used Eudora back in the day.
Works seamlessly with window 7 and is infinitely more secure then Microsoft’s own mail program.
Thunderbird
I just got Windows 7 last month and found out that Outlook Express did not run on it. I am just using Windows Live mail and love it.
I use Eudora, but I’m not sure that they’re still current. I like it because of the “personalities.” All members of the family can send under their own email addresses.
Assuming you don’t need an integrated calendar function (which never made a whole lot of sense to me anyway since email and an appointment list are mostly unrelated) Thunderbird is the only way to go.
I’ve been using Thunderbird for over 4 years. I really like it. I use it for my personal and business email. I’ve never had any problems with it.
What’s wrong with Outlook 2010? Not secure?
Didn’t want to spend the money for what I use it for. I use Outlook at work, but home simply doesn’t require that kind of a client.
I have read in several articles that Thunderbird 3 is really bad, full of bugs and vulnerabilities.
I am sticking with the last Thunderbird 2, it works great and I don’t need anything else.
Email client? That’s so 20th century...gmail is the bomb, I’ll never go back to anything else.
Windows Mail is Outlook Express for all intents and purposes.
It fits my needs perfectly.
I'd be lost without it.
