Brian,

Just because you can push Outlook to technical limits doesn't mean it is 
is good idea to do so.  Please avoid HTML and unnecessary graphics in 
technical lists.

Now, tell us some things about your set up.  What will you be using as a 
backend?  IMAP? POP? Exchange?  If Exchange, what version?  Will you be 
connecting to the mail server over the LAN or WAN?
