I moved from Outlook 2002, and I cannot now think of anything that I miss particularly, apart, maybe, from the ability of Outlook to track shared documents, etc. That is a theoretical issue, because in reality I never used it anyway. I still use Outlook for my contacts and diary (I have not got round to finding a suitable replacement that will work with my Palm), and there is no easy way of synchronising address book entries, but this is not a major problem. Some of the things that I can do with TB! out of the box, I had to spend a lot of money on with Outlook. For example, I used Email Templates in Outlook (a costly add-on that cost more than TB!) which had 1/2 the functionality and 1/4 of the ease of use of TB! templates and filters. > - I cannot export folders back to OL .PST files - this makes a migration > more risky As others have suggested, don't allow TB to delete mail from the server. You can then download it into Outlook as well, just in case you want to go back. I did this for a couple of weeks, although I purchased the full version of TB a day after I downloaded it, because I knew there was no going back! > I've also not been massively impressed with stability / quality.

No problems here with crashes, and I haven't had to use the uninstaller yet!
