Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
Office Outlook 2003 is an e-mail client and personal information manager, handling contacts, tasks, notes and diary entries. Although it works well as a standalone package, it is also the client for Microsoft Exchange Server, in which case additional features appear. The best thing about Office Outlook 2003 is its integration. For example, from a contact entry you have right-click options for sending e-mails, creating appointments or setting up a task. When you create an e-mail, contacts with e-mail addresses appear as an address book. This kind of integration makes it easier to manage your data. Outlook is also very flexible when it comes to e-mail accounts. You can set up multiple accounts, connecting to POP3, IMAP, Exchange Server or Microsoft’s Hotmail service. Another important feature is the Organize wizard, which makes it easy to create rules that sort mail into different folders. There is also a junk e-mail filter.
There are several important new features in Office Outlook 2003. The most important is to do with how HTML e-mail is rendered. By default, scripts do not run and external content such as images stored on the Internet are not downloaded. This makes Outlook more secure as well as improving performance. If you know the e-mail is safe, you can choose to show all the content. Outlook’s layout has changed, so that e-mails are previewed in a vertical pane. The narrower column is easier to read than before, and it makes better use of available space. Those using Exchange Server benefit from a new offline cache, designed to improve performance, especially over slow Internet connections.
This is the best Outlook yet, although the product still suffers from hidden complexities. It makes good sense as a personal information manager, especially when synchronised with a Pocket PC or Palm PDA, but as a pure e-mail client it is unnecessarily heavyweight. Full marks to Microsoft though for the improved layout and much better e-mail security. --Tim Anderson

I'm not particulalry a Microsoft Fan but I hate to see them blamed for someone else's mistake.
The previous reviewer should have checked the stated functionality on the Microsoft Web site before buying then he would have known that business contact manager is part of the larger office Suite.
The interface has in fact had a major overhaul and is much faster, there are changes to the way active X and Embedded objects are handled (not run by default) in Emails which have important implications for security and prevention of viruses from junk mail.
Obviously users upgrading from Outlook XP will not see much change in look and feel but it's often the changes under the hood that matter. Anyone running Outlook 2000 or previous versions with a fast enougth PC would benefit more and find this a significant upgrade.

Yes Outlook 2003 does seem to be superdooper, but be warned, if you haven't got Word 2003 you won' be able to create templates or use Word as your email editor, which is extrmely annoying. Had I known this before I bought Outlook 2003, I would have bought the whole Office upgrade as I now have to buy the Word 2003 upgrade to be able to use Outlook properly - why is microsoft so frustrating??

This version of Outlook is a great improvement on the Office XP version which I used previously. To start with it is visually more impressive and makes it far easier to organise your emails. I especially like the ability to group your emails by day so that they stand out better.
The Junk-mail filter is excellent and has successfully caught every bit of junk I have been sent so far. It did this straight out of the box with no additional configuration from me.
Other than these features I cannot say that I have yet discovered all the differences between this and the previous version. Is it worth the price? In my opinion it is.

Is this worth the money?
Office 2003 is a much nicer suite of tools than previous versions. I really do like it. Nevertheless, I got my version very cheaply from local Dixons when it closed. Read more

Outlook Junk Mail Filter is Great
This feature alone justifies the pgrade to Outlook 2003. I receive between 100-200 SPAM mails a day. Outlook 2003 catches between 99%-100% of these. Read more

Just get Outlook! - excellent
Exceptional new product (the other parts of Office appear pretty much the same). The Junk Mail filter is excellent, as is the redesign generally. Read more

A rip off
I have just upgraded from MS Outlook XP to Outlook 2003 under the impression from the Amazon site and the MS website that there was significant functional change in the upgrade. Read more
