Small nit, Outlook 2003 had AutoSave. GMail was publicly introduced in 2004.

That's the "Inbox"

I'm pretty sure that Outlook has had categories (the color-coded custom named things that can be multiply applied to emails) since 2000ish.
- aimatt 14y agoSomeone loves Outlook
- hussam 14y agoI'm a dedicated GMail user, but I think it's good to give credit where credit is due. Autosave was definitely not first in GMail. Thunderbird also allowed messages to be sorted by thread a while back (which you could argue was a rough precursor to GMail's conversation view).
- ericingram 14y agoI really like Outlook. I switched to Gmail this year because I wanted free e-mail and Gmail is easier to configure. But, as a client, I enjoyed Outlook much more than I do Gmail.
- mike-cardwell 14y agoSo why don't you just point Outlook at GMail?
