>  Ok Netland, I need some opinions about Microsoft Mail 2.0.  Does it work?

Well, we're using it here. I'm whelmed. We're still running a (late) beta
version, it works pretty well, but the feature set and operations are
kludgey. If I were just setting up an e-mail network, I'd go with Quickmail
instead (as is various other parts of Apple).

It's not a bad product. It works. It's a good, safe business decision type
piece of software. Quickmail has a lot more functionality and better (& more
intuitive) bells and whistles.

Anyone who thinks that the argument over {sci,rec}.fishies is about
