Outlook Express? Not for running a business
I often find clients who are using Outlook Express for their email and using it to try to run a business. Outlook express comes pre-installed on most Windows PC's but some people don't realise that if they have purchased Microsoft Office (not the Home & Student version) that they have Outlook installed. This is by far the superior tool for running a business. Outlook Express has very few features and is not suitable for using as a contact database. Outlook gives you so many more features - calendar (including meeting requests), tasks, notes, categories. Even if the client doesn't have Outlook installed I suggest they purchase a standalone copy of it and export their emails plus contacts over from the express version. It is a move I have never seen regretted!
