Just yesterday I praised Outlook, Microsoft's integrated email and PIM (Personal Information Manager) client for Windows PCs, and I mentioned Microsoft Entourage as being the closest thing to it for the Mac. At work for several years now, I've been considering switching to using Microsoft Exchange Server (the server component for corporate environments) for our email (and groupware) but mainly because of its high cost, security concerns, increased administration, and poor Mac support, I have shied away from it. (We are currently using Mac-based EIMS as our email server.) Apart from cost concerns, I'm not yet convinced that Exchange server is the way to, but news that the next update of Entourage X (for Mac OS X) will incorporate Exchange server connectivity in summer 2003 is defnitely welcome. I first heard about this in the February 11, 2002 edition of the Lockergnome Tech Specialist e-newsletter.
