And besides that, these clients really do deserve this invective. I spent more time supporting the 2% of my users who insist on running MS Outlook (aka LookOut! or Outhouse) or MS Outlook Express (aka Outhouse Distress or Outbreak Express) than every other user combined. The prograns are the most badly coded pieces of grabage I have ever had the misfortune to encounter. They simply don't play nice with anything other than MS Exchange and are utterly unsuitable for dialup use. The really stupid thing is that quite a few users acknowledged the program works far worse than Eudora or Pegasus, but they've been forced to use it due to the policies of companies they deal with, etc. AB
