Gmail allows me to take my email offline and run standard SQL queries against it Not just email…. Contacts, Calendar and Tasks.

I wish I could do that with Outlook.

When you are a damaged PST or OST you get this.

Please give me a % complete (and any other info, like the part it is up to)

It should also alert users that this is not fixing corrupt data.

Eg. This is a consistency check only checking the free space – the non-data regions of the file (the free space that needs to be used). Therefore, this check progresses has nothing to do with the data itself (i.e. it is not folder-by-folder, it is region-by-region in the file).

Please add auto spell check on mail subject.

We need an additional field “Days To Go” on appointment or meeting:

Please add who created this (see yellow) in the UI… or at least on the Properties of the email

Ideally, you will be able to see:

• Who created this appointment (see yellow)
• On which PC it was created

Currently, you can only see this by clicking “Reply to All”

It is better to add a signature in Appointments like in Mail messages

The “Connection” tab needs reordering as a minimum change.
The first two sections are hardly ever touched (Being “Connection” and “Modem”).
However the “Outlook Anywhere” is used a lot, so that should be the first section.

PS: On the “Microsoft Exchange Proxy Settings” form, we need button under the first textbox “Populate Settings From Mail Server”(or is there a security reason this could not be done).

Here is my sad story…

1. Exchange goes corrupt…. be frightened of running out of space with virtualization :-)
2. We go back to a backup a 3-4 days old :-(
3. Outlook (the ‘smart’ client) connects…. it sees that the server doesnt have the emails that it has… so it proceeds to quickly and violently delete hundreds of emails, from the last few days.
4. Everybody is not happy

Why doesn’t Outlook not work better? It could say.

Since you last connected, 356 emails have been deleted from ‘Inbox’ on the server.
Do you want these emails to be deleted on your PC? [DELETE]
Do you want to put your emails onto the server? [UPLOAD]

Is there a downside to this? I can’t think of anything….

(with this feature, outlook would not just be a copy, it could be included into disaster recovery plans)

I don’t think subjects should be changed today, because those use the threading in Outlook, the thread is now ruined. However people do, so I wish Outlook gave the functionality to change a subject and then use “Tools | Refresh Conversation ID” to change the Conversation ID.
PS: Better still just refresh the Conversation ID after you change a subject

I am going to flash my TyTnII.

All my data is synced Except my SMSes Grrrrrrr.
