They already have "Outlook lite", it's called the Outlook Web App and it has what you want. I don't think Microsoft would be threatened by this at all. Nobody chooses to use Outlook, it's what you get if you work for a big corporation or if you purchase Office 365. It's not a standalone product, I can't just use Outlook. I think it's not doing Front any favours to compare themselves to Outlook. Outlook is an enterprise product, my company has customized the crap out of it and it's hooked up to our global credential/access system. That's not even close to what Front is offering (a better multi-inbox tool).
