Is this new e-mail program a worthy replacement for Apple’s Mail app? Instead, I’m going to approach the review from a different perspective. Many of the features are designed to work with a Microsoft Exchange server, and an assessment of that is better left to others.
However, approaching this very capable e-mail program from the enterprise perspective isn’t the plan here. Nowadays, with the incredible popularity of the Mac, Microsoft has finally delivered Outlook for Leopard and Snow Leopard. Behind the scenes, Apple would nudge Microsoft to listen to all the complaints and create an identical version for the Mac. Corporate customers would complain to Apple, and Apple would gently and politely refer them to Microsoft. The question here is, can it replace Apple’s Mail app?įor years, corporate customers complained that Entourage for the Mac was a crippled second cousin to Outlook for the PC. Outlook 2011 for the Mac is part of the Microsoft Office for Mac 2011 suite and is intended to replace Entourage 2008.
