For 30 years, people have trusted Pegasus E-mail. The initial proprietary email client built for NetWare networks, including MS-DOS and Apple Macintosh clients, has only received Microsoft Windows platform support since.
Pegasus Mail (PMail) is a standalone application built for single and multi-user situations. However, with the development of cloud-based email systems, Pegasus Mail’s proportion of the market has diminished.
We will discuss how users can migrate from Pegasus Mail to Office 365, and why.

The extensive screening and security capabilities of Office 365/Microsoft 365 are on par, if not better than Pegasus Mail.
