our work has recently moved over to MS Exchange from a Sun solution.

with the previous version I used TB without any problems, nice and light, calender worked via Lightening.

so work has moved me to Exchange, which in turn is using outlook 2010, f'ing hated outlook 2007, memory hungry, none closing piece of crap.

so, is there any reason I shouldn't use TB to connect to my exchange mail, internet suggests its possible, but should I do it?

If you've got POP or IMAP protocols enabled on the Exchange server there shouldn't be a problem.

If its only using MAPI then you'll need Outlook to be able to connect.

I still use Outlook 2003 as I don't like the 2007 or 2010 versions.

Thunder Birds Great, I find it easier than Outlook.

Gmail allow free pop forwarding.
