It has by far the best interface of any mail program I've used. It 
doesn't corrupt emails. (bad thing to say!) Every time I try something 
else, the mail program either looks like unix with a friendlier face 
(eudora, mail) or a copy of emailer which isn't as nice as emailer 
(outlook,powermail). I end up coming back to emailer, and cursing the 
hours spent experimenting with the other mail program.

I've not yet had to use any kind of authentication, so this has never 
been a problem.

I've heard way too many horror stories of entire email repositories being 
wiped out when MS upgrades Outlook. Since I use email to track my day to 
day work (too much, actually), I'd never trust Outlook with this task.
