Why not introduce them to Mozilla? You can use Firefox for the browser and Thunderbird for the email client.

I've heard that outlook is less than great, but I didn't think it was
worse than IE (I didn't think anything could be that bad).  In that
case, let me ask you this: what would you suggest that's free (as in

working on that), and simple and stable enough for an admin assistant to
use?
