For me, I have to say it, it's MS Outlook. I do e-mail all day every day and I use VBA macros and all sorts of shortcuts to make it very useful. Love it.

That is the first time I hear someone praise Outlook. For an application that gets billions in billing, there are no valid excuses for it to be the same thing as it was 15 years ago.

I think there's a solid argument that getting billions in billing while being stagnant is self evidently a valid excuse to be stagnant.

Check if you have any plugins installed on Outlook and disable them.

Freezes and crashes are often caused by bad plugins setup by your company.
