Exchange 2007 and the Linux Desktop
,----[ Quote ]
| Geek points! I got in a "Stranger in a Strange Land" reference! In this case,
| it is not martian patience, it is just that there is not choice. MAPI support
| is coming soon, but it is not here yet, and it is getting here far faster
| than it might otherwise have, since the various projects have access to the
| actual protocols this time around. It still will take some time. I fully
| expect that Evolution 2.26.0 will be followed by a series of point releases
| while all the bugs get worked out on this brand new feature set.
|
| The funny thing about all this is that it probably still is only a short term
| thing before all the angst about these protocols fades from relevance. Cloud
| Computing, Google Gears,, SaaS, Linux based Netbooks, and all the current
| technology has us heading away these paradigms can not help but have an
| impact here.

Connected: Microsoft Outlook 2007 is no prize, either
,----[ Quote ]
| Outlook 2007 is one of the weaker applications in Office 2007. At times I get
| so frustrated with its slow response and idiosyncrasies that I'm tempted to
| uninstall it and go back to Outlook 2003. Readers also have frustrations.

E-Mail Marketers Should Look Beyond Outlook
,----[ Quote ]
| Unfortunately, you can't add code, or any HTML for that matter, to a
| message in Microsoft Outlook. That leaves adding graphics as an
| attachment, which is a showstopper.

Microsoft Breaks HTML Email Rendering in Outlook 2007
,----[ Quote ]
| If support for web standards in browsers is improving slowly,
| then support in email clients is moving at a glacial pace.
| Attempts to document things like CSS support in the major
| email clients have revealed a depressing state of affairs,
| but with recent desktop clients like Thunderbird now sitting
| on solid rendering engines, things have been looking up.

DOD bars use of HTML e-mail, Outlook Web Access
,----[ Quote ]
| The JTF-GNO mandated use of plain text e-mail because HTML messages
| pose a threat to DOD because HTML text can be infected with spyware
| and, in some cases, executable code that could enable intruders to
| gain access to DOD networks, the JTF-GNO spokesman said.
