The beauty of RSS is that I can read it when I want, and when I want may include times when I don\'t have internet access (e.g., I\'ll download my feeds right before getting on a flight to have something to read on the plane) and an online reader doesn\'t allow for that.<br><br>In the process of starting to use multiple machines (at home and at my internship), I\'ve been looking for ways to have everything available and sync\'ed wherever I am. I\'m currently using FeedDemon/NetNewsWire to sync my RSS via NewsGator. I began using GMail online because POP isn\'t synchronous and I\'ve grown to like the interface quite a bit. My school email still comes in to Mail.app since Outlook Web Access is terrible on non-IE browsers and we only get 50 MB of storage on the server. Exchange does an okay job of synchronizing my email between my desktop client, my Treo and OWA (for the few times I\'ve used it).<br><br>I\'ve posted more of my thoughts on my blog about two months ago when I was faced with the problem:<br><a href="http://www.martingordon.org/blog/2006/06/06/becoming-os-agnostic/" rel="nofollow">http://www.martingordon.org/blog/2006/06/06/bec...</a></div>\

But I also don\'t want to move everything to the web. Some time ago I was forced to use a completely web-based groupware solution and my overall productivity extremely dropped. It wasn\'t fun to work with that web interface and so many tasks took so much more time than they did in Outlook or a similar PIM application (= fat client). I\'ve also found myself using Groove for stuff rather than using SharePoint more often, just because it is easier to access and work with - still like SharePoint, though. :-) I think Ray Ozzie\'s Live strategy isn\'t that bad - combining the "old" with the "new" world to benefit from its synergies.

Granted, e-mail isn\'t the right file transfer tool and maybe not the best tool for long discussions, but for every other purpose - why not? Ask questions, request stuff, getting hotel/flight/whatever confirmations, delegate tasks, etc. I know a lot of UNIX guys you force themselves to use Pine or similar command-line based tools, just because they think it\'s cooler and that all the "mouse" tools are just crap. But if you\'re using e-mail to do your everyday business, not just to delete NDRs ;-), than you need a good e-mail application, that helps you creating rules, tracking and categorizing your e-mails, etc. This tool can be Outlook, but could also be Entourage, Evolution, whatever. But I really think you won\'t be as productive with Pine. Some years ago, when I needed to use Pine, it was good for send/reply/forward, but managing a lot of folders, storing e-mail for later reference, tracking e-mails, etc. was just really bad and not very productive with Pine.</div>\

I like how RSS feeds integrate so well with Outlook 2007. Why have different clients for everything when you can roll your email, RSS, calender, everything in one!<br><br>Text emails? I honestly think it has been AGES since I have received a text-only email. Most of my emails are HTML or Richtext!<br><br>Yes Outlook runs on windows only - that is a valid argument. I still do not think pine is the best - thunderbird is alright - I would give it a try if I were moving to a non-windows environment.<br><br>Gmail and live-mail are great, but I still do not like web-based email. I prefer to get them on Outlook (or another good email client capable of reading html and richtext emails), preferably using IMAP or Exchange protocol. The AJAX interface may be good, but I prefer my thick client to the AJAXed thin-client.<br><br>The other good thing I like about Outlook is the spam filters - they are updated almost every month, and they really catch 90% of my spam, of not more.<br><br>That said, there is one thing I *really* want to see in Outlook - ability to send personalized emails (without using the crappy mail-merge feature in MSWord).</div>\

She said she gets as many as 700 to 800 emails a day, so she needs something "fast."  (She didn\'t say how many of the 800 emails were spam.)<br><br>Of course even with the blazing speed of Pine, she still can\'t keep on top of her 800 emails a day, so what does she do?

Zero. As far as I know, if I fire up Outlook, I have to wait for my mail to be delivered to me. Now, correct me if I\'m wrong but I think that means Outlook actually has to make a network connection to some box that has my mail on it. Who cares if that box is an exchange server or Google? You\'re still in the same amount of control.<br><br>Ok, so lets move away from the enterprise. What are my options now? Outlook magically giving me full control to my mail?
