Hi - This is my first comment and I was looking for some help. I use msn for my e-mail etc. - I understand all about using my web as my e-mail but what I really want to know is why Outlook? I don't find it user friendly at all - maybe it is just my computer or something but it doesn't seem to have the flexibility of the MSN mail. I am considering looking for a good e-mail program and would love some suggestions. I know MSN has its limitations - for example I cannot send out more than 50 e-mails at one time. I plan to change but would love some suggestions as to a top-notch e-mail program.

Thanks!

Sandy…I thought I would respond to your question "Why Outlook?"

Outlook allows you to have email, a database, a calendar and tasks all in one program. Plus, you can sync your files with a most smart phones and/or PDA's (Palm Pilot).

Also…since some 90% of pc users use Microsoft…sharing files and in-compatibility issues are minimized.

Outlook also has a low learning curve. In 60-90 minutes I could have you using Outlook email and the basic database functions confidently.

I hope that helps.

Jeff

Sandy,

As Jeff mentioned in his reply, the ability to sync Outlook contacts with your PDA. I use a Blackberry as do many real estate professionals, and the ability to sync between Outlook and the Blackberry is very convenient and usefull. You can transfer all or only those contacts of your choosing to and from each platform.
