I love being able to search my email inbox, contacts, and folders for keywords, but I didn't know you could do that from the Start menu. Very cool. Thanks for the tip. I've also picked up a few tricks from the Microsoft Office system Expert Tips webcast series.

Rather than saving a stock email as a template, I like to use the quick parts (Outlook 2007) to store up common phrases that I use when emailing folks. It's a major time saver for me

Outlook 2007 addresses the issues you raise:

- Search box for all items - you can select which folder of Outlook to search.

- Contact search now searches all fields of the contact.

I'm a student and I use Outlook. It's awesome to have local copies of all of my email, contacts, and calendar items from Live Mail available on my desktop and laptop.

Plus Outlook itself is just really powerfull.

wait, about the second point. Outlook does do that. If I type my mom's email address into the contact search box, she shows up. If I type my local area code in, a bunch of people show up. If I type my home phone number in (and format it correctly) my parents show up.

If you're using Vista, (I figured this out just now) type "Outlook " + whatever you want into the start menu. For example, I typed "Outlook Stephanie", and I got emails about my girlfriend, her contact card, and some related events. It did give me a couple files that weren't part of Outlook, but it seems to work pretty well over all.

Useful stuff. In trying some out in 2003, it's interesting to note you must disable Word as your editor, at least temporarily, to be able to save as an outlook template.

Two thing I feel missing from Outlook
* A search box for all items
* the contact search box must search all item in the contact (not the name alone)

Duncan is correct as the smart date logic has been around for awhile. It's one of those features that didn't get as much press.

Hey Now Sarah,

Nice Post. I really like search folders also. I didn't know of the desktop search, have to try it on my xp machines & also I didn't know about the option of hiding when minimized. Why do you think this a great feature? The 1st add on you mentioned sounded very useful also.

Thx 4 the info,

Catto

Sarah:

I'm pleased to hear that IMS is helping out! FYI - we have recently released IMS v4 which adds a Dashboard, Unread Message Alerts and a streamlined toolbar to the product. More details can be found here and a 2 minute demo is available here.

Also, check your gmail account - I sent you some additional information there.

Thanks!

The natural language stuff for dates (day after tomorrow) is very cool, it has been in the product since before it was even called Outlook though I believe.... certainly for many previous versions :)
