i'm really loving outlook.com - jumped all in and moved everything over from gmail.

do you all have any plans to add some type of sync functionality between outlook.com and the outlook desktop application?  i manage my contacts through the outlook desktop application, and it's a bit of a pain to export contacts from outlook desktop application to a .csv, then import into outlook.com.  would sure be nice if there was a way to sync content to & from these two relatives, especially contacts & calendars.

thanks

    There are so many factors involved with message delivery that it's not possible to suggest one solution. Email isn't supposed to be instant messaging. The email standard says mail can take up to five days for delivery.

    I am using Outlook.com with Outlook 2010 and the Hotmail connector.  It does work but when someone sends me an email it take around 30 minutes before I actually receive the email.  How do I fix this?

    I sent in my post months ago and only now do I get an article... Sorry, I already bought my CompanionLink/Deja Office and it is FANTASTIC!

    No I do not work for any software, hardware or any other computer or cell phone company. I am just enthused about CompanionLink and Deja Office. I am also a fan of Microsoft but I was very frustrated at the runaround they have put out there regarding the syncing of Outlook.
