Outlook 2010 has included some social networking features along with an impressive interface... Come on, TheBat staff, do something and let us see you will have some major improvements,too.

Isn't it a good idea? The interface is also quite impressive. I m not underestimating theBat, I really love it. But don't you think it's time to have some major updates on popular features and interface?

I handle my mail far more efficiently with theBat than with Outlook. Updating contacts via various sites doesn't seem really important for a mail client, just more code and eventually more bugs.

You can customize pretty much everything - menus, toolbars, views, keyboard shortcuts etc. In terms of usability it's far ahead of Outlook (though I haven't tested 2010), you can adjust everything as needed.
