[Offtopic] Outlook Express v6

[Roland Gesthuizen]

G'day Zach,

I gave up on Outlook and Outlook express after too many crash problems 
and corruption, exporting all my e-mail to Thunderbird 
http://www.getthunderbird.com then using POP and IMAP to connect to the 
school and DET servers. Haven't looked back since. :-)  It has something 
to do with the central point of failure by Outlook for trying storing 
everything in a single file. Worth fixing up first with some of the 
Outlook recovery repair tools that you can google.

Regards Roland
