FYI, there are other (better?) solutions to stopping spam than moving
from Outlook XP to 2003 ... You might be better off going back to
Outlook XP to get back the "suite" and inter-operability that you seek;
and at same time find another approach for the Spam issue.

Hope this is useful to you. Let us know.
