Just does email and contacts. Stick to Outlook - I still think this is the best MS product around. Well may be except for Encarta.

I've been using Thunderbird for a while now, and I want to go back to OE

Last week, for the second time, I lost the contents of my inbox. It's a known problem apparently, and after it happened the first time I followed all their advise on how to prevent it happening again.

Trouble is now, that its quite a performance to transfer the lot back to OE. You can export email files from OE, but its not as straightforward apparently with Thunderbird.

I imagine most people would advise moving to Thunderbird, but for me its been a pain in the bum.
