What is the e-mail program you use?

Also post why, i.e. calender, no bugs, native exchange features (whatever that is).

I prefer Outlook because I use Exchange. I also really like Outlook Web Access.

Gmail has a very good webmail interface.

What is Exchange? My school's e-mail system has "native exchange" I believe but there is no documentation on it. Is it worth switching from thunderbird for?

I use Thunderbird at home for my University mail and Gmail for my personal stuff.

Exchange is Microsoft's email/calendar/contact collaboration server software.

Wireless activesync of my email/contacts/calendar from Exchange = the hottest. :)

Outlook because of the PIM and I can sync it with my Axim easily without going through a lot of hassle.

Outlook at work.

Outlook Express at home, because I haven't felt like switching to Outlook yet.
