Comments about Outspring Mail

1) Importing works well.
a) Importing does not import passwords for accounts
b) GMail accounts do not get the right login information
ie. instead of user.name@gmail.com it just uses user.name

2) Signatures are NOT imported. They are created automatically with user name and email address.

3) No rules engine, although it might be intended that Auto-Filing supercede a rules engine, I would still prefer being able to set specific actions.

4) Importing Apple Mail into new Inboxes received an error -9990. They could not be displayed.

5) Importing mail loses attributes such as colored labels, flags, etc.

6) Demo version lasts 16 days. Every time you start up you have to enter your name and click Demo button.

7) Updating Messages (Getting Mail) started to run without stopping. Had to kill the process.

8) Will not recognize LOCALHOST as a valid server address if you are using an email proxy or spam filter such as Purify.

Usability lags behind Apple Mail. Has potential, but definitely no competition for Apple Mail, Entourage or Thunderbird. Pricey.
