Thank you for the advice. You rather confirm what I wondered, although as I am new to Macs I worried about overlooking the obvious.
Certainly Mail got off to a good start in my mind as it was the program that allowed me to load email from my old PC, something that Entourage sulked over. Also, I like the one size fits all display, as opposed to the goodness know what font size one seems to get with Entourage. However, it seemed too good to be true and was looking for the flaw. Clearly I am too cynical for my own good
.
I am a heavy Word user, but never really need the linking, so think I will use Mail for the time being and see how I get on. Got the link between Mail and Entourage up and running so can always change later.
Only down side with Mail is that it displays dates in US style, something that really gets up my nose and I cannot so far find out how to change it. Well, I have to be an irritable old
about something.
