Agree. I use it even with my other (gmail) account.

How stable is this at the moment? I gather it's close to 1.0 release. Should I wait a month or so?

I have yet to have any problem with stability. It seems pretty rock solid.
My only two complaints are:
1) Seems to take a long time to load for a simple app. Probably 30 seconds from launch to actual receiving of email.
2) While you can simultaneously be accessing multiple email accounts and respond to each one individually I have yet to see a way to access the multiple address books. It seems that you mark one account as a primary and that's the address book you can use.
If anyone has a fix for #2 I'd love to hear it. Copying all the addresses from other accounts into my primary account seems like a hack.
These are both issues that I would imagine to be fixed in a future release. But as it stands, the current version is quite good.

Novell. Did you check out the website first? It is a test-bed for Novell Messaging Technologies as the FAQ outlines about.

 There is one nice email client which has some good features like
(*) Blind Send
(*) JunkYard etc
It was a shareware called Calypso from MCSDallas Inc. but now a freeware download from Rose City Software Inc. RCS also gives a commercial product called Courier Email Client.

There were two other good things called
(*) Saberquest MailSpy
(*) Victor's Email Remover (which peeks into the headers alone to facilitate you remove the junk email).
But I am not currently able to find both the downloads anywhere. Anyone any clue?

For sure the best mail client.
More features, more compatible, intuitive, good looking, years of development, most likely the most used software in the world every day which leads to an exhausting user experience improvement.
Sure there are others, which have their strengths and weaknesses either but most scream "I'm more light than everyone else..."
Speaking for myself I don't look for lightness but goodness, and Outlook is the best mail client I've ever tried.
M$ would like that most user may say the same about IE :->

It's really not that...
As I thing about it I can't remember any other application I have the same opinion.
If you think about Outlook, after you install it, you just start working with it.
No need for big explanations, the action you perform does what what you expect it to do, it's clean no fancy icons or graphics...
Although it might be a bit heavy for some computers it works great.
In my opinion, Outlook is the M$ most successful application after Windows.

Well at least they did not mess up the UI in Outlook 2007 like they did with the rest of the Office 2007 products.

I would say it is a good email client but it still crashes far too often and is too slow and I find that searching for messages is in no way as good as gmail.

Hmmm...except for loosing the connection to the exchange server 5~6 times per day, it doesn't crash for me. Crashing is not something that I have seen outlook do very much. Although I do have problems to close it. On a regular basis it will not close and I will receive the end application dialog, but I am sure that is caused by the loss of the exchange connection.
I do feel like Outlook is the better application of the whole office suite.
I did try a couple of other email clients, but the thing is....Outlook is not just an email client and when connected to an exchange server it becomes soooo powerful. I would like to try something else, but there is not anything that can do what Outlook does. Sure I could find a calendar application....and a tasks one....and then an email one. Talk about unecessary clutter and the fact is that outlook is so powerful because it is ONE solution. Quite frankly I don't really like the calendar as it misses customizations, the same is true about the tasks, but in the end it does remain the more powerful application of the sort out there.

There are 6 people quoting The Bat in others while you put Eudora and Lotus (who would be in sane mind using that, I had to use it at work but in private life on my own will, no way!).

I use Notes,

A Bug is not all bad.

unfortunately, I have to use it at work. 
...and it's not the latest version either. I can't begin to express how much I hate/loathe Lotus notes.

I used to use outlook, both express and 2003, but after a while I noticed it tries me crazy, everyday early in the morning.
When database grows up (and it does extremely fast) I several times encountered deadlocks or unacceptable latencies, ending up with the worst solution: 'End Process Tree'.
The main reason I was using an email client was that I had dial up and I was disconnected most of the day but still needed to refer back to an email several times a day.
As soon as I was able to get ADSL, and web services improved, a web based email fulfills my needs and it sometimes offer even more(like chats, better search, etc.)
Now I'm quiet happy every day.
