Microsoft Outlook 2007 replacement

Microsoft Outlook 2007, I believe, is due to be redundant some time in the near future.
I've been disabled since 2011 so subsequently funds are quite low these days.
I'm not in a position to renew Outlook as just explained am and I really don't fancy using something different as I've been using OL since I can remember.
SO, does anyone have any suggestion as to getting around this issue please?
Thank you,

Do nothing! Why should you worry, because the software still works, and won't stop working suddenly!
I know people who are still using Office 2003, quite happily.0 -
I was worrying because this I did not know.
Thank you0 -
About the only thing which might be stopping could be security updates, which is unlikely to affect you much.0

+1 to the above.
I am still using Office 2007 (including Outlook) and have no intentions at this time of changing.0 -
Hi dvtrv,
As has been said, don't worry about still using it. The extended support goes on until October 2017 which means it will still get security updates etc. just no extra features or fixes.

Office 2003 only went out of extended support in April this year so you've got plenty of use in 2007 yet.
Hope this helps.0 -
Again this I didn't know of. Thanks.
Bye!!0
