I've found it much better. When not using the preview I had some
problems with using keyboard shortcuts. Using the preview pane it works
great so that's what I'm doing. I also would like it if it displayed
new messages in folders other than Main. I have to click on the folder
to see if I have new messages. I love it's handling of sent and deleted
mail. Unlike Outlook it actually uses all the folders on the server.
