"My Day" is a cool new feature on the whole. But, with apologies to Clint
Eastwood, a couple limitations do not "make my day!":

1. Short of going into Leopard/Applications/Utilities/Activity Monitor and
finding and killing the My Day process, how does one de-activate the process
that uses nearly a gigabyte of virtual memory on top of 22 mb of real memory
when it's idle? (I can't find any relevant preference or any information in
Entourage/Help.)

2. Would it be feasible for a future version to add a column in the My Day
display for due date when the preference is set for "Starting Today"?

3. Would it be feasible for a future version to give an option other than
putting it in the dock or in the Finder's menubar (such as "neither of the
above" or "launch only from the Entourage application window")?

Respectfully, Norm

Important addition to above post: Some utilities and some installations
require one to quit all open applications. Even some Office 2008 procedures
require quitting open Microsoft applications. If you command-tab through
open applications to My Day, it will not respond to command-Q (quit).

Command-Tab to the MyDay and hitting "Q" (with the command key still down)
appears to have quite it on my machine.

Thank you, Lewis. My mistake! I must have taken my finger off the command
key.

That still leaves from my original post two shortcomings:

2. Would it be feasible for a future version to add a column in the My Day
display for due date when the preference is set for "Starting Today"?

3. Would it be feasible for a future version to give an option other than

How about, Launch By Date only. The MyDay Application continues to pop up every time I start my computer.

How do you delete a saved e-mail address in entourage? I don't have Windows Live Hotmail and I typed in my regular hotmail address and error messages keep popping up informing me that I must get a Windows Live Hotmail subscription.
