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? -- Art

for Human Development Art, I failed to also mention the major issue of contact
importation from Outlook that currently makes my data useless to me because of
the issues I mentioned in the first email. Bryan P.S. Again, I hope this is the proper way to respond. If not,
please help. |
