Recommendations for Graphical E-Mail Clients

While there is no official campus standard e-mail client, the Office of Information Technology (OIT) Help Desk has studied several e-mail clients that are commonly used on campus. Through testing, it has found that these Highly Recommended and Recommended clients are the most secure and provide the widest range of features. The NOT Recommended clients may not be completely compatible with OIT e-mail systems; therefore, OIT Help Desk discourages their use. OIT Help Desk recommends the following:

	PC E-mail Clients	Macintosh E-mail Clients
Highly Recommended	Thunderbird 2.x Outlook XP/2003	Thunderbird 2.x Mail 2.x or higher
Recommended	Outlook 2000 Outlook Express 6 Windows Mail for Vista SeaMonkey 1.1.x	Entourage 2004 SeaMonkey 1.1.x
NOT Recommended	Eudora 6.2 Netscape Messenger 7.x**	Eudora 6.2 Netscape Messenger 7.x**

** The vendor no longer supports, updates, or recommends this application
