Outlook for Mac 2011 - Knows Your Day and to Handle Mail
 When Jud Spencer posed on the stairs for a snapshot with Guy Kawasaki and their co-founders in the early 1990s, Fog City Software had not yet shipped its email program. It never would.
Instead, Spencer went to California. He had taken the code with him, and the email program was released as Claris Em@iler. When Jud Spencer joined Microsoft, he took the code with him, I guess, and Outlook Express Macintosh Edition was born.
When Outlook for Mac disappeared, Outlook Express Macintosh Edition learned to talk to Exchange and became Entourage. Now, of course, Entourage has made way for Outlook again — which can't synchronize with iCal or iPhone yet but fares reasonably well as an emailer:

 For a while, you can't see much; but you notice: the smell is different.
In the sun's warmed morning air, the plum blossoms' fragrance has developed differently from what you smelled in the misty cold from which you've just stepped forth. The peak is still far, but the day is young.
Here's what Bashō wrote about a situation like this:
scent of plums
the sun breaks through
mountain path !
Now, the Japanese ume, which blooms right around this time in early spring, differs a bit from the plum; both are delicious, though, and attractive:

| How to Send File Attachments with AIM Mail or AOL Mail
On a hot August day in 1859, a muslin bed sheet very slowly swung through the still air, descending toward the dusty road leaving Crawfordsville to the south, for Swankesville, I believe; after the odd parachute, a balloon.
John Wise had been forced to end his balloon ride early, so he decided to make the landing interesting, at least. He attached the mailbag he had been handed in Lafayette (to be delivered to New York) to the sheet and threw it out before descending with the balloon. Poor winds cut his journey short, but Wise's was still the first delivery of mail by hot-air balloon in the United States.
Now, to cut short delivery time of documents and images, you can attach them, with a muslin sheet perhaps, to your ever email's gondola in AIM Mail and AOL Mail:

| How to Search Public Google Buzz Messages in Gmail
The longer, the faster: search for more words and characters, and results come up faster, most of the time, with Boyer-Moore search.
Looking for matches, Robert S. Boyer and J Strother Moore's method starts at the end, with the last character of the search string at the string's length into the text. If you look for "search" and the text does not have an 'h' as its sixth character, there's no point, after all, in also comparing the five characters before.
Now, whatever search strategy it employs, Gmail finds all the public posts you seek — short and long:
