Andy, I sent the following to Michael directly. In retrospect, should have sent to the list.
I have been using Outlook 2007 for quite some time and it works fine in most respects. The major issue with emails is those that are set out with tables. That makes reading tedious and I often find it better to view in browser. The shortcut combo is alt-h, x v Enter. You'll get a dire warning, which seems largely unwarranted. It does make viewing of those table-based emails much nicer. For the calendar, simply use the window-Eyes option, insert-c by default. My biggest issue is with Contacts. After some fiddling, I view by category. It isn't perfect in that I have to arrow up and down. That is, I can't type the initial letter of an entry to get to it quickly. I did fiddle with a set file some time ago which seemed to be working well but fell into disrepair when something changed. In summary, I much prefer Outlook to Outlook Express. If you get on well with the Ribbon, which I do, facilities are readily available. Feel free to give me a yell if you can't find something. Like most Microsoft products, there's lots I don't know, but Outlook 2007 is by no means malevolent. The one thing I forgot to mention to Michael is that it is helpful to turn off the reading pain in the View Menu.
