Hi Kevin,


You're right. I think that a big percentage of all mac users are using Safari. IE 4.5 was popular on Max OS9. I checked our webmail logs form the last 24 Month and i dind't see one user with OS9/IE only.


If IMail 2006 will support modern Mac's running on OSX with gecko based browsers, it will hopefuly good enough.

IE for mac should no longer be used. 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.

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".

I think it comes down to basic use of internet standards (w3.org). 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...

Totally agree.  A browser compatibility list is a must for any web app.


Our problems have been in having to avoid newer CSS layout methods due to

compatibility requirements with IE 5.x on Mac.  Microsoft dropped the

product, so I wish the user community would <g>.
