Differences between Outlook 2002 and 2003

[Lisa C.]

Hi,
I am putting together a training for Outlook tasks and I
am wondering how different the screens look from 2002 to
2003 and what, if any, is the new functionality with 2003.

I appreciate your assistance.
Lisa

Might want to start with

a screen shot or two here that will show you that the interface is
different.

Add what about the security (spam, virus)? Are O2002+Antivirus and 02003
on the same level or O2003 offers definitively more?

Thank you.

Outlook 2003 offers a significantly better junk filter engine and of course
the blocking of the most problematic attachment types is still there. The
new reading pane on the right doesn't pull down content from web and doesn't
do any type of vbscript/javascript in html messages.

Outlook 2003 can never replace a good desktop antivirus product. There is
just too much information coming in from various places to go w/out one. If
you have the chance to move up to Office/Outlook 2003, I highly recommend
it.
