I use Thunderbird mail. I tried several other programs but didn't work well. One couldn't store the password. The single problem I'd like to fix now is getting two screens to work. They both did for a while but then the second one disappeared on me.

Sorry I can't help with wubi.  My understanding is that this is really
only designed as a system for trying Ubuntu out.  I advise that you
install Ubuntu in a separate partition such that you can dual boot to
it or Windows.
