Not under any Windows Update... but doesn't really matter too much as you can download it manually anyway (which is probably a better option).
It does seem better, although I wouldn't say it's completely cured the awful performance. |

| #2, What type of client connection do you have? I've read some on the client performance issues, but have not seen it myself. Any information you have would be appreciated - as I do not want customers to have a bad experience. Thanks |

#4 using IMAP. Compared to Outlook Express, 2007's IMAP performance is not brilliant. The one thing I could do in OE was do an operation on an e-mail (like delete or set a read/unread flag) and I could still use the application while it queried the server (you get a small hourglass beside the pointer). With 2007, the same operation locks up the entire app until it's done (and if you have a poor connection, you don't get control back at all, necessatiting a forced kill of the OUTLOOK.EXE process).
It's not using any old PST files either, seeing as it's IMAP, I simply started from afresh and dowloaded the mail after setting up the account in 2007. However, the performance has left a lot to be desired, especially compared to Outlook Express. |

#2,
That defeats the entire purpose of Microsofts aligning all updates under the one panel in Vista. TL |

Outlook IMAP basically died with Outlook '2000.
Outlook 2000 was the last version where Microsoft actually wrote the IMAP client built into Outlook. Starting with Outlook 2002 (XP), Microsoft farmed out the coding of the IMAP client in Outlook to a third party. And it hasn't been worth a damn since. IMAP performance under XP was SO bad, it was barred from use and unsupported for us. You either used Outlook 2000 or you didn't use Outlook. We went with Exchange starting with Outlook 2003 and that's where we've been since. TL |

#4, Thanks - much appreciate the information.
We do not use IMAP, preferring an MS MAPI connection to an HTTP listener in support of RPC over HTTPS - where the client runs in cached mode. Even in online mode, [de-selecting from the default cached mode], I have not seen any slow downs using MS MAPI/RPC over HTTPS. I'll give the IMAP scenario a try on an un-patched OL2K7 client and see what I get. The last time we used IMAP was for one of our designers who preferred a MAC system with Entourage, but they moved to Windows systems after CS2 shipped. Does your email service provider offer connections as I have described? |

#5, I know it can appear that way, but that is not how it works, or even should work.
Not all updates will apply to all users and many hot fixes apply only in very specific circumstances and some may even degrade sytems for which there is no good reason to apply a hot fix. |

#4 my host for my domain only provides IMAP or POP3 (http://faq.oneandone.co.uk/e_mail/general/11.html)
the reason why I use IMAP is because I prefer having the mail on the server so that I can access it anywhere I like with whatever client in the exact same folder configuration I have defined. |

#9, Yes, excellent reason to use IMAP over POP3.
It's a shame that the host does not offer a hosted Exchange 2003 service - an MS MAPI client using RPC over HTTPS [possible since August, 2003 and easy to implement since E2K3SP2]. It also, stores all mail objects on the server and uses a very intelligent state-full connector that adjusts silently according to network traffic and client connection state. This ensures that objects flagged in any way [read, for example] appear as such, regardless of the number of client connections one may have [e.g., more than one PC running Outlook]. One may also run different clients and set them to leave a copy of messages on the server [up to the limits one's host will allow, of course]. |
