Or they never compact their PST files.

This MUST be done manually... tha auto-compact 'feature' is highly
unreliable.

While Outlooks Mail/Calendar integration is excellent, and calendar
functionality as a whole is very polished, I loathe the mail client
aspect enough to have avoided it since the first time I was forced to
use it for about 6 months (Outlook 2000).

Currently, Thunderbird+Lightning still has a long way to go, but it is
'good enough' for my purposes.
