Is this a feature of an Outlook add-in? Why does it still take 3 mouse clicks in Outlook2003 to add an address to your blocked senders list?:
Left mouse Clicks: (Actions–>Junk Email–>Add Sender to blocked Senders List)
Right then left mouse clicks: (Right click on message –>Left MC Junk Email–> Left MC Add Sender to Blocked Senders List)
There is no icon for “Blocked Senders” to be added from the “Actions” menu to your Outlook toolbar.

And, the built-in email notifications are awesome -- helps me stay on top of a very busy inbox.

And by the way, I was with PayPal before it was X.com. Infact, before it was "X.com PayPal" It was plain old PayPal. It was much better in those days, the original owners of the site actually gave a damn. But now eBay is changing that again. <a href="http://www.thegiant.us" rel="nofollow">Giant's Randomness</a> It does, but the previous version of Outlook also sucks.

I think Office 2003 is a great client. Personally I think its more reliable than previous versions. The one challenge I see is that Outlook is becoming a house made of cards. Its add-in model is outdated and fragile. The more addins you have, the more likely Outlook is to become unstable. Hopefully this is addressed in the future.
