When you try to install the final release (demo) it will uninstall the BETA
first. Later you can easily upgrade to the final release. Upgrade will go
smooth but you might need to recreate your mail profile after the upgrade
from Outlook 2000 to Outlook 2003. This will also remove all the old
registrykeys of your profile. To recreate your profile;
Control Panel-> Mail-> button Show Profiles...
