I was having a hard time understanding all the things I could do with Outlook 2003 so I stayed with Outlook Express. Because of this book, I am now an avid user of Outlook 2003. If your new to Outlook and want to learn all about it, I recommend this book.

I purchased this book because I had never used Microsoft Outlook (had been using Lotus Notes for years at work). The book uses primarily examples to illustrate some of the features of Outlook, but does not deal with all of them. To this point, it took me several weeks until I finally figured out how to receive all my mail from my ISP in Outlook (click on "Tools", "send/receive", then "send/receive all"); this is such a key feature that it should be prominently explained/discussed in this book.
The index is not very comprehensive, so if you are starting your search there, yopu may not find what you are looking for
