email client

[vor_lord]

Our company is going to google mail, I am curious to see what the corporate google mail client is like. It can't be worse than Lotus Notes, so I'm looking forward to it.

We've been on google mail for quite some time now (a year?). Is there such a thing as a corporate google mail client?

At least as far as we are set up, we use the web client, same as any free gmail account. The only differences are if your administrator decides to screw you by going all conservative and disabling 'labs' features.

Of course you can use whatever mail client you wish via IMAP.

Switching mail clients was no big deal for me (I personally love being able to get my work email without going through a VPN). I've learned to love the google search with my mail (though there is no partial word search matching).

Switching to the calendar from MS Exchange had a lot more bumps in it. Google calendar works ok, we schedule conference rooms from within it which is nice. Certainly has some odd bugs, and doesn't necessarily play nice with Outlook 100% of the time.
