Mail can handle POP, IMAP, .Mac (which is a type of IMAP), or Exchange Server accounts

dude, i know 'mail' is a mac app, but version3 said 'consolidate'. WTF?
can mail do hotmail?, and why do i need a .mac account to use it?

you dont need a .Mac account to use Mail.
Entourage can handle Hotmail accounts, Mail can't.

i see, fuck 'mail' then. no use to me.
what about 'thunderbird'?
and what is this 'consolidate' thing?
or are you mocking me?

consolidate is not an app, it is a suggestion.
