omnifail IBM outlook search utility

Posted in Live (January 4, 2008 at 12:03 am)



Since I can no longer use Lookout with Outlook 2007 I have been looking for an email search utility. With the IBM release of OmniFind I thought my quest was over. However it seems that Omnifind uses a indexing service and actually launches your browser to view search results. Reading what Omnifind does sounds cool (semantic search) but among other things not sure why you need to open a port on your firewall to make a email search tool work!?

What I don’t understand is why you need a service for email search? Why you need a different UI to see the email search results? Why can’t the built in search for outlook be bonified? Why is was what  Lookout did so wrong where you need to kill this feature with a 2 ton anvil?

(yes I’m being a nagging user)
