For my pop mail which mail program is better? The mail software that comes with the PB or Entourage from Office? BTW...my PB just got shipped so I haven't used it yet.
If you are just going to use it for Pop, Mac Mail should give you everything you need. I'm a recent convert to Mac myself and am using both because my work email is Exchange and have to use Entourage. But, Mac Mail is a lot quicker and niftier.
I've also been very happy with Apple's Mail app, both on my home computer and on my iMac at work. The spam filter alone makes my Windows-using co-workers jealous. And it works well with multiple email accounts too; I access both POP and IMAP accounts in Mail on my machine at work.
