This site will remain where it is, but no new scripts or content will be added.

It was fun doing this, but alas, I no longer have the time to contribute to this site. Thanks for visiting!

In other news, Microsoft released Office:mac 2001. This is I product that the Mac Business Unit has worked long and hard on for over 2 years now. Entourage:mac is a new Personal Information Manager and Mail client that is built upon Outlook Express 5. So if you like OE and you crave the features of Palm Desktop all in one program you should be sure to check it out. You can get the full version of Office:mac or the upgrade. There is no stand alone version of this product, you have to purchase Office. I am really proud of this product and hope you enjoy it.

And while you are at it, subscribe to Entourage:mac Talk, a mailing list to discuss this cool new product.

Also, check out the recent New York Times article on Entourage.

If you have been looking for a good book on either IE 5 or OE 5 I highly recommend it.

Wish List - you may have noticed I removed links to the wish list. This was done for many reason, the first being that we haven't updated it in a year? We simply don't have the time or energy to devote to a list which isn't really serving its purpose any more. Back when Outlook Express 4.0 was released it was lacking in many major areas. Subsequent versions of Outlook Express (4.01, 4.5, 5.0) have incorporated nearly all of the wishes submitted. With the advent of Microsoft's newest software application, codenamed Alpaca, many more of those wishes are addressed. If you still feel the need to submit feature requests or any ideas feel free to do so on the mailing list. You'll find that it is probably the best and most direct method to get help, and offer suggestions to future releases.

New Book - Peachpit press has released a new book (due in at Amazon on May 26) on Internet Explorer 5 which includes information on Outlook Express 5. It is a rather large book (320 pages).

Scripts - Diane has been posting scripts like crazy! There have been a whole bunch of additions over the past few weeks.

News - Last week Microsoft announced a new product for Office 2001, codenamed Alpaca. It is a Personal Information Manager and it does mail! Think of it as Outlook Express with a PIM built in! Anyway, that is what I am working on these days...

1. It will be easier for us to add scripts to the Archive, since those pages are now dynamic. This will free us from manual updates etc...
2. You can now search for scripts. Since there are so many, this should make it easier to find what you're looking for.

There will probably be some kinks to work out over the next few days. There are also new AppleScript Submission guidelines. This process is now very different so please review them. The better you adhere to the guidelines the faster we can get the script up on the site.

Also, we will likely be moving to a schedule for site updates. We are doing this in part cause We are busy folks and this will make updating the site more regular for us and for you.

In other news, yes, the OE Team successfully moved into our new home at 1065 La Avenida, in Mountain View, CA. If you're driving up highway 101, we are right at the merge of 85 and 101 at Shoreline.
