I can not get the form region to show up

I have tried
c:\users\xxxxx\AppData\local\microsoft\outlook
and
c:\users\xxxxx\AppData\roaming\microsoft\outlook

neither seems to work. Any idea?

Still in Beta (isn’t everyone). Very slick- don’t know how I lived without it. If they are slow to give you access, let me know and I can send one of my invites.

This is very useful, specially for us. We have been working for the last 4 years on a Unified Messaging platform for the consumer. Our desktop client looks almost like Outlook 2007 ( http://www.mundialco.com/unifiedmessaging/2008/01/22/yambi-demo-screenshots/).
It has never occurred to us that folders were actually part of the problem in Outlook. Thank you for bringing some light to us. Your proposed solution: brilliant! We will definitely consider your solution in our desktop client. For more info on Yambi, please go to our blog: http://www.consumerunifiedmessging.com

I am also now using OneNote, which I have come to rely on. I’ve never been big on categories for my email, but now with OneNote I’ve become a use of categories for tasks. OneNote has brought task management to a pretty high level.

I understand the conditions of your warranty… :)

One handy thing about categories in Outlook is that you can drag and drop emails between them to recategorize. This is a handy way to get lots of emails set up with categories initially. To do this, sort by category, and then drag and drop.

I’m offering very limited warranty with if-I-can-get-to-it bug fixes.

I have been meaning to write this myself for a year, but as usual just never did it. I’m going to try working with this. It’s usually the self-written programs that are the most useful and most used.

About the first part – “No single hierarchy works well for me.” – amen.

I manage my email through Gmail.
