It is quite a step up from XP.

2K3 web interface is quite nice too.

if you use it with an exchange server its even more amazing...with the combination of calendars and tasks and all that in a real business setting its amazing what all microsoft has thrown in...

does it have the ability to tell you what a hyperlink in an email actually points to (when you mouseover) like the status bar on the bottom of IE / FF ? I'm asking because of phishing efforts.

the inclusion of hte calendar is amazing!! plus it syncs to my blackberry...so at 8.45AM (when I'm at home) it reminds me i have a meeting at 9!!

i love technology.

before i never really cared much for PDAs or all the fancy features of Outlook, but now I really appreciate them.

yuck.

why do you use such a bloated interface for grabbing email?

I say this since you had thunderbird earlier, I doubt you use their (ms) calendar or anything like that.

I don't think so -- I just tried with a link here at work (we use Outlook 2003) and I didn't see anything like that.

if you have office pro or smb, download the new updated business contact manager

I use it with the new Small Business Accounting 2006. Very nice product all tied together.

Outlook is probably the best one yet. Very robust and customizable. I wish the rule limit was not set at 20.

It isn't. It's set at 32k. And it will be gone in Exchange 2003 SP2.

Too bad it's IMAP support is still sub-par.

Actually, it does (at least with HTML mail).

I chose a classic phishing mail item that was caught in one of my spam filters as an example.
