I’m finally using Apple Mail in work again after using the utterly crap Entourage 2004 for months. My favourite things about Apple Mail are:
- Integration with Address Book
- Opening attachments without a confirmation dialogue every time
- Dragging-and-dropping attachments straight onto applications
- The connection status window doesn’t open itself every time mail is received
- Number of unread messages is displayed on dock icon
Things I don’t like about Apple Mail:
- Horizontal, letterboxed layout is less efficient than a column layout on a widescreen monitor
Thankfully there is a plugin available to turn Mail’s interface into a column layout. (That one is for Leopard only; there’s something similar available which works with older versions of OS X.)
