Because the browser rendering engines are significantly different.  While
Safari is bsed on Mozilla and will most likely work, IE for Mac is _very_
different from IE for Windows...especially in CSS layouts.  Not having a
Mac, I've found it extremely difficult to design for Mac audiences using
newer layout methods, and have generally had to revert to table layouts to
avoid CSS inconsistencies that would cause rendering on IE for Mac to fail
miserably.... but again Safari may work fine.

Yes, but most development shops are Windows-only based.  I've run into
several third party web apps that could not tell me whether their products
worked on a Mac because they didn't have equipment to develop or test with.

We'll be buying a Mac sometime soon to better test web apps for that
audience.

See if it doesn't work fine in Safari.

Hi,

Did i understand the postings correctly, that the new webmail of IMail 2006
does not work on Mac's? I really hope, this is wrong.

First of all, i can not understand, how a web programmer is able to create
html/css/dhmtl/js-code that is not mac-compatible.

Secondly, our isp customers and imail customers are living in a mixed world.
This means: wintel's and mac's.

Without mac support, the customers won't move to imail 2006 at all.

Today i sold a imal subscription to an college having 4000 accounts,
containing a few hundreds IMac's. Do i run in troubles now?

If this is really true, i would re-scedule the release date of Imail until
this issue is solved.

Would anybody from ipswitch confirm this issue, or better say: "It's a nasty
halloween joke"??
