??? Since when is MS Outlook free? At least in the US, it hasn’t been free since Outlook Express was shipping. Vista no longer has it, and neither does Win 7. There maybe a trial, time limited copy, on new PCs, but after the trial, you pay retail.
I just went to the MS site, and you can d/l a free trial, but it definitely isn’t free to keep using it. I use Outlook 2007 after using 2003 for a few years. Is it worth it to upgrade to 2010? I’ve also read that an install will destroy the old data (email, contacts, calendar, etc.) and wonder if that was true or not? BTW, the AutoConfig utility works with all versions of Outlook, not just the ones you listed, according to their site.

Thanks Dennis. You made a point! The article didn’t say that Outlook was for free but it was unclear and some readers might think it was. I corrected it accordingly!

It still says it is free: I quote from the 2nd line ” best of all, it’s free”. This still implies to me that MS Outlook 2010 is free. You do state that “Outlook AutoConfig” is free, which it is, not Outlook 2010 itself.
