Just thought I would mention this since the information on his site indicated that it was untested with Exchange. Now I can increase the POLL timeout and still get notified immediately of new mail. I like it! I just tested this with my Exchange 2003 server and it works great. Just thought I would mention this since the information on his site indicated that it was untested with Exchange.

Loads of people have written about their experiences with the two clients. If you do a search for "Mail.app" and "Entourage" in the search box on the top right of Hawk Wing's front page, you will turn up tons of hits like this: http://www.hawkwings.net/2006/05/05/users-on-entourage-vs-apple-mail/ http://www.hawkwings.net/2006/09/06/more-on-entourage-vs-mailapp/ Hi Steve,

Can you advise me what kinds of key functions I would gain vs what I would loose? Is it worth the move? The only reason I am considering it is that I trialed a project manager software package called Merlin and it integrates with Mail and not Entourage. I also recently got a .Mac account which seems to integrate better with Mail and iCal. Any comments or advice would be much appreciated Hi, I currently use Microsoft Entourage on my iMac (intel) and started to consider moving all 3 of my mail accounts to the MAC Mail application.
