I can't tell if the use of 'Wicked' is (a) inadventant, (b) a Boston reference, (c) an SNL/Boston metareference, or (d) an historical Mac IIfx cross-platform "we're on on Intel now, punk!" hyper-reference. Points awarded in order of appearance.

Regardless, as someone who sees Outlook 12 become the most important client software development since, um, Netscape .94, I'm (super-)happy to hear that search will be fast.

Keep up the great work.

A bug in current Outlook 2003 is that when you turn on the find ui by pressing ctrl+e or through the menu, it does not go away if you press the shortcut key again. So, when the find ui is visible then ctrl+e does not turn it off.
I reported this bug and even after 2 service packs, it was never fixed. There are many more bug that I reported but nobody pays any attention.

One thing that has always bugged me when using search in Outlook is how to type phone numbers.

Did I enter someones phone number as 11 22 33 44 55 or 1122 3344 or was it 11223344, was it formatted using Bulgarian, Danish or American notation?

It would be a great releif if the search disregarded the spaces!

Will the search also search other storage items such as contacts and appointments. One of the most useful features of lookout was an easy way to find a contact by searching for part of their name. This always found the contact and/or e-mails from that person in super-quick time - I need this!

Well search has never been an option before in Outlook due to it's poor performance and results. I use Windows Desktop Search which is immeasurably superior to the current Oulook offering (and I used LookOut before that).

However I'm curious how the new version will work with Windows Desktop Search (both via the MSN plugin and in Vista), it would seem logical for Outlook to become a native provider for the window's search engine (rather than the current index while running approach). If Outlook could push updates to the indexing engine that would be far superior - probably more so than improving the internal search capabilities of Outlook itself.
