What mail client do you use?


Recommended Posts

I can't imagine any mail client being more effective than mail.app.

It does everything you'd want a mail client to do. the junk mail filter is absolutely great. it works with your address book flawlessly. the whole deal about highlighting all mails with a given subject is awesome....

there's more but i've been drinking....so yeah....

My mail server runs spam assassin so it can set the X-Spam headers mail.app uses to automagically move junk to the spam folder (this is in addition to bayesian filters it uses). Combine with the simple interface, options to ignore images/html/etc and the show full headers commands I think it's almost the perfect pop/imap client: I'm not sure I could go back to windows or linux unless there was an application almost identical.

Even the "flag" for new messages on the dock icon is subtle but powerful.

Mail > * (unless you need exchange connectivity - but I've never needed that).

Entourage, because it can connect to M$ Exchange servers, otherwise I would use Mail.app

I'm forced to use Entourage as well. I would use Mail but my mail server is an Exchange server, and Mail's Exchange support...well, I won't go there.

I utilize Entourage...

Why? No clue, I never ventured into mail.app... It only came naturally to configure my mail to be used with Entourage after I installed Office.

I will need to check it out, after all the praise. I'm sure it's well worth it.

(I do use email from a .mac--so it would work seamless with my current configurations, makes sense.)

...So I gather mail is the default mail client (like OE on Windows?) on OS X?

EDIT: Yes it is. Can you import files some way from Outlook Express into Mail?
