Compare More Easily in Apple Mail

In Apple Mail, if you need to work back and forth between two different views of Mail's mailbox contents, you can do so quite easily. For example, you might want to look at a mailbox holding all filtered-in sales orders from the past week while also looking at a smart mailbox showing unanswered customer questions.

To avoid constantly clicking between mailbox views and losing your context each time, choose File > New Viewer window to get a second window and then arrange each window as desired.

Microsoft Exchange Delivers Viruses

As of 12:00 PM Eastern on 27-Aug-07, the Flash animation at the top of the Microsoft Exchange Server page shows a swirl of "smoke" displaying all the benefits that Exchange Server purportedly delivers, email, compliance, calendaring, viruses, voicemail, unified messaging, viruses, flexibility, viruses... Thanks to Marshall Clow for pointing this one out.

Where did it come from - a disaffected graphic artist taking a pot shot, or a marketing bullet point gone horribly wrong? We'll likely never know, though the animation certainly answers the question of why Apple didn't build Exchange support into the initial release of the iPhone - not enough time to make the iPhone sufficiently virus compliant.
