[comp.sys.mac.misc] QuickMail or Microsoft Mail

chen@sun4.AER.COM (Chin-tien Chen) (05/16/91)

I am in the process of selecting an E-Mail system for our Appletalk network.
Our Appletalk network will consists of about 30 Mac's( SE/30's and IIsi's ), 
an SE/30 serving as Appleshare File server and router and A GatorBox 
connecting the AppleTalk to the ethernet of our UNIX computers. 

My predecesor purchased a 10-user license QuickMail and a 10-user GatorMail-Q 
( for connecting Macintosh mail system to the UNIX users and outside world, 
we are on the Internet ). Recently the company also purchased 11 copies of 
Microsoft Office package. The Microsoft Office includes Microsoft Mail. 

I got the impression for our dealer that QuickMail and Microsoft Mail can't
coexist on our network. Is it correct? If yes, then I have to select one of
something equivalent. Which one is better for our kind of environment? 

If you have any experience is using either one of the mail system, 
I like to know about it. Thank you in advance!
