I have to disagree as I administer a heterogeneous network, including an 
Exchange server (not my choice). If the Win servers are set up correctly I 
find that Entourage or Mail are better than Outlook. And Terminal Services 
work no better or no worse. I also have to deal with Citrix, which I must 
confess was a royal pain to get working but also now works the same. Hell 
there is even a Java App for Citrix that works fine.
