Can I get you on a conference call with a couple of our customers to let them know they shouldn't use or support IE for Mac? <g>   Seriously, though... there are a lot of IE for Mac users out there still.  We ask up front if the customer wants to support it before starting layout work.

Due to incompatability with newer standards, It should be in the ball park with netscape 4.x and anyone using it will continue to have issues which will get worse as time goes on.     Kevin Bilbee -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Darin Cox Sent: Monday, November 07, 2005 6:17 AM To: IMail_Forum@list.ipswitch.com Subject: Re: [IMail Forum] IMail 2006 WebMail w/o Mac Our issues have been with IE for Mac, Safari has been fine.  IE for Mac has a number of well-known CSS bugs...perhaps one minor reason why the product has been discontinued by MS.  It has nothing to do with PC vs. Mac... or "non-compliant code".

Mac browsers, FireFox and Safari are as just as compatible with proper internet standards as any compatible pc browser. Where you find troubles are when you start slinging non compliant code that runs on PC browsers, then expecting Mac browsers to do the same...
