wow! you have just two changes, make your choice: ;)
the free one: Outlook Express (with Internet Explorer)
Outlook '95 or '97 or 2000 with MS Office
oooops sorry, there's the Exchange client too!!!!!

I'm quite confotable your is the Express one; click on the "?" and then
"About..."
I'm talking about the "real" Outlook and btw it works via MAPI... it's
completely different. I'll try the Express  too for your confor... ;)

I cannot note the delay because I use a remote Exchange Server and I must
wait dozens of seconds in any case!

However I'm seeing different behaviour; in your example when I click on
(e.g.) Foo I can immediately see the contents on the right... any kind of
item... messages, tasks, contacs ecc....
I must click exactly on the "+" to see the sub-folders in the tree!!!!

Let me point out that with Exchange any kind of folder can include again any
kind of folder and so on; is not mandatory for Foo or Bar in your example
being Mail folder, they could be (e.g.) Task folders and at the same time
containing Mail sub-folders

What do you mean with atm? The communication protocol? Matters?
