Yeah, I use Outlook 2003 at work, and it's *very* slow. (But then, our 
Exchange server is on the other side of the planet, with a latency of at 
least 100ms, and a maximum outside bandwidth of 2 Mbit/sec.)

It's not a bad product. A little irritating to configure, and it has 
some silly limitations, but overall it's not bad.

Outlook Expression, OTOH, sucks.
