Thanks for all the advice, it sounds like my management may
have found a way to coerce me into using Windoze (kicking and
screaming all the way).
If I do try to rebel though, I'm not sure if I like Bruce's
better (I may have found a reason to get someone to spring
for a palm):

Right now may mail comes in on a Unix server and love it. I can
check my messages from home (pine works wonderfully) and I have
fetchmail running daemon mode to grab the messages off their system
(saves them disk space, and me headaches). If I am forced to run
Outlook I am afraid I will lose that ability - but then again, I'm
not up on M$ Email.
I am also afraid that, if I give in here it is just the first step
into forcing me (as the cartoon once said) "to be assimilated",
and I've been a Unix user too long to go willingly.
Oh well, all good things must come to an end...
Thanks again!
