Huh? I've never heard of that before, millions of people worldwide rely on 
Outlook on their work machines to do far more than email on a day-to-day 
basis.  There's no way that MS is going to do anything like an automatic 
"upgrade" to OE unless they wanted to piss off a huge number of corporate 
customers who give them serious amounts of money.

Anyway, now OE has been renamed to Windows Live Mail (or maybe something 
else recently), so there should be less confusion between the free mail/news 
reader and Outlook.

Also, why would anyone use Outlook for simply reading email?  That seems a 
bit of an overkill.
