- That is what I have heard from Microsoft. My impression from MS is that
- all future mail efforts will be on the PC platform, with a client for the Mac.
- At first I was kinda disappointed that they were "abandoning" the Mac mail
- platform, which we have been using since it first came out. But the more
- I think about it, I don't really care what platform the server is on, as
- long as the Mac client is nice. The latest release of PC Mail has some
- really nice features. If they match those features in the Mac client, then
- I'll still be happy with Microsoft Mail.
