I realize SI is working to put many of the same functional TF User-Mac features into the future Windows version, and am happy to wait. But I'm getting more and more PC users ( a lot of whom are running Windows 3.1) who are unable to do a lot of the things I'm telling my Mac users to do. By experimenting on the PC I think I have discovered what Mac features the PC lacks at this time, but I haven't found an "official" confirmation of my tests in a document or posting. Some kind of side by side features list for both the current PC and Mac versions would be really helpful. So, in my quest to inform my PC users and to be sure I'm not overlooking something, could you at SI (or anyone else in this forum) please answer the following questions:
Is the Windows client 2.5 running under Windows 3.1 1. Able to create text files? 2. Able to Save text files? 3. Able to use signatures text files for email messages? 4. Able to create and/or use profiles of users? 5. Able to save to the local hard drive of the user, email messages either received and/or sent? (There is a "Save" and "Save As" menu item but neither work.) 6. Able to save email messages as text files? 7. Able to create an address book? 8. Able to make use of the new Mail Server forwarding feature? 9. Able to attach files to email mesages? 10. Able to see or detach files that are received with email messages? 11. Able to look up all users by simply pressing return in the blank locate a user window?
If any of the above answers are yes could you tell me how such action is performed? (For instance I tried to save an email message this morning on our PC running Windows 3.11 because the Save and Save As items were highlighted - but nothing happened.) I'm assuming most of the answers to my questions will be no because I haven't discovered a way to perform any of the tasks mentioned. I'd love to be wrong though.
Thanks for your help.
