You have to use the address your ISP gave you.But some of them will give you more
than one if you want.To set margin you have to use HTML format.You have to add an
account in OE and you need a password.
Antispam protection in OE poor.You can exclude known addresses only which is stupid
spam is coming from unknown.Type website address of your webmail provider if you
have an e-mail address independent of your ISP.

Your email address is independent of what software you use.
Margins have no meaning.
OE has no spam protection built in, there are programs you can install that will
work with OE, but none will stop spam.
yes you need to send you password, but you can have OE remember it.
You can block senders with OE.
But using a public computer changes most of the above since you will not be able
to use OE at the library to access your email, and you really wouldn't want to.
