On February 21st, Microsoft released the new Outlook Mobile Manager 2.2 with support for Windows Vista and Outlook 2007. Microsoft Outlook Mobile Manager (OMM) brings the power of Microsoft Outlook to your portable device. OMM can prioritize your messages and makes smart decisions about when to send email. OMM also sends calendar reminders, task reminders, and an Outlook Today style daily summary all to your wireless device.
I’ve just downloaded it and I’m starting to play around with it. The new stuff, on a fly-through, is:
- POP3 support for webmail clients, in addition to Exchange email accounts.
- Enhanced support for native junk-email filters.
- Extended personalization to examples from arbitrary folders
- Multiple user-interface enhancements
- Support for Windows Vista/Outlook 2007
The best feature to me is the POP3 support. Now I can add my online accounts and collect the mails in personalized folders to keep track of things. All the rest seems quite ok, but I haven’t tested it yet. If anything remarkable happens, I’ll update this post.
