Minor, but annoying Outlook 2003 bug

H

Heiko Herrmann

Hi there,

I have a minor, but annoying bug to report in Outlook 2003 - how can I reach
Microsoft to hopefully fix this in some future service pack?

The problem is as follows: I use "Arial Narrow" for nearly all my standard
fonts, configured in the Control Panels Display Applet. This saves a *lot*
of screen space, even in the taskbar (since the "Start" button is also much
more narrow then in WIn2000 and in Classic theme in WinXP).
Now Outlook 2000 and XP used this font in the folder list. In Outlook 2003
however the folder list is always displayed in Arial (or is it Tahoma? No
idea) forcing me to scroll a lot which makes work less efficient. I guess
this is an easy bug to be fixed so it does only need to reach Microsoft
somehow. Maybe some MVP has contacts to the Microsoft Outlook team or
something like that?
