I'd so love to try Xobni, but, I am not forking out $110 for Outlook 2k7 for the privilege of doing so. :/

  building a business on top of a customer base that has proven to open their wallets is a good move. Would you rather be trying to pry money out of people that think email is not worth $110? I am a mac user, so its not an option for me. But I were still on Windows, I would pay for Outlook as the alternatives are significantly less interesting.

    Or just do what I do, get a hosted Exchange email service. Then they give you a copy for free. You could cancel after one month and get a copy for $8 if you don't want to keep it.

      Just to be pedantic, this is normally against the ToS of the hosting company, and violates the license that comes with Outlook. If you're going to pirate it, so be it, no one is going to stop you, but going through the 1 month registration doesn't really change the moral or legal issues involved. For instance- https://www.mailstreet.net/exchange/outlook_order_1.asp?SOURCE=+&RESELLERID=&PROMO_CODE= https://www.mailstreet.net/exchange/outlook_order_1.asp?SOUR... "As a MailStreet account holder in good-standing you may download or order Outlook 2007 media for use with the MailStreet service. You may install the software on each computer that you have MailStreet service with. If you do leave the MailStreet service you must uninstall the Outlook software or purchase a retail version from your regular software vendor. If you have multiple computers, you only need to order one copy of the software. "

        Yeah, you're right. Just pirate it.
