Well there is an update for the Mac client available at Microsoft's site
which will make it OS8 complainant. But overall Outlook for the Power
Macintosh is pale compared to Outlook 98. I couId sit here and make a
laundry list of complaints about Outlook for the Macintosh but at least I
have heard Microsoft is working on expanding its Exchange client. So
basically hurry up and wait.
