What's good about outlook?

[Frazer Snowdon]

Hi!

I've been told that I should start using Outlook, rather than Outlook Express.

What are the benefits of Outlook over OE?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for your help, both of you.

I understand that with Outlook you can get back an e-mail you've sent, as
long as it hasn't been diwnloaded from the server at the other end. Is this
true?

I think what you are thinking about is the Recover Deleted Items function
within Outlook, but for this to work you will need to be running on an MS
Exchange server

The recall function works, if at all, only under very specific conditions,
two being that both you and the recipient are using Exchange for you mail
server and that the recipient has not read the message yet.

 

[Vince Averello [MVP-Outlook]]

Recall only works with an Exchange Server and only in certain limited
situations.

It only works (sporadically) with Exchange. Message recall seldom works
over the Internet.
