In Outlook 97 (don't know about the others), there are "Importance:
High" and "Importance: Low" buttons on the toolbar.

This is yet another Perfect Reason why the toolbar should be user
configurable:
    I don't give a rat's butt about the Evo junk filters, thus, I 
    don't need those buttons.
    
    I do, though, see the need for a Reply To List button.
