I've never been able to work out why Outlook Express and Outlook are so completely different!

Not only do they work differently, but the file formats are completely at odds, and the address books are separate.

It's all part of a cunning plot...

I use Outlook at home, and Express at work. Keeping the two synchronised was such a waste of time that I gave up. Instead, I pick up the same emails on both systems - 'leave messages on server for 7 days'...

Good old MicroShaft!!
