Now I know why you need a manual/stick shift XML on the Web Has Failed? Or is it people who only care about English? :)

Lookout: Email Search Tool

Tech Add comments

The Lookout email search tool is up on the MSN sandbox. It sends you over to the download page.

I have always hated Outlook’s search. It is slow, and painful. With Lookout it has been working very nicely, and it is BLINDINGLY fast. It feels just like they are using Lucene behind the scenes ;)

Thanks guys

Update

Yes it IS using Lucene. Lucene.NET!

But a quick perusal of the Lookout directory shows that it’s just using Lucene.NET for its searching and indexing. That’s an open source project through the Apache foundation.

    I hated Outlook´s search too and was so happy about LookOut. But than I changed to Outlook 07 and LookOut didn´t work anymore! I was so down, because it helped me so much in my work-life! But I found a Tool, which is very simlar to Lookout, just that it works with Outlook 07 and Vista. It´s called Lookeen http://www.lookeen.net
    It has a few really good features like that it works with exchange servers, fast, you can improve your search results with extended search fields and it is beside the outlook search a desktop search too.
