Strangely I don't have a Mac of my own, and one reason could be the lack of Turnpike. Have a look at Thunderbird as an alternative. I haven't used this program myself, but a lot of people have said that it is really good. http://www.mozilla.org/products/thunderbird/all.html If you want, I can check with some of my Mac colleagues at work and see what they are using for Mail/News.
