Good morning, Everyone:
As you can see, the debate about Outlook versus Lotus Notes is more or less
even. I will follow up with a few of your suggestions and give it to my IT
team.
Many thanks for your input and have a great weekend!

I would suggest Thunderbird which is free from www.mozilla.com (the same
makers of Firefox). Mozilla is much faster to release updates for any
discovered problems/vulnerabilities. Their products are also much faster
and reliable than microsoft products

According to my son, the computer science major, Outlook is a virus
attractor that sometimes functions as an email program.
**********************************************************************************************************
I have two school email accounts, this one and the "official" one, which
only works on Outlook. Until that "official" one was started, I didn't
have Outlook installed on my computer. Once we got that, I had to use
it. Since then I've had quite a bit of trouble with the machine
freezing, usually while using Outlook or right after.

You might ask the Computer Science department at UMR csdept@umr.edu what
they would suggest.

Gosh... I know this isn't very technical but... Yucky! Yucky! Yucky!
As a user
I don't really like it. I was a user with Lotus Notes and STILL miss it.
I
use and manage Outlook. It is very flakey. I would switch back in a
minute!
I know that isn't much info but I hope this helps!

We've been using Microsoft Outlook, for about 3-5 years. It's the only one
I've worked with but collectively we all like it here.

Hi, Have you considered an open source? Mozilla Thunderbird could be
an answer.
