Microsoft Outlook 2000 is a desktop information manager that organizes e-mail messages, calendars, contacts, tasks, documents, and files into a single, integrated environment. Outlook 2000 also helps users share information through Microsoft Exchange Server public folders, electronic forms, groupware, and the Internet.
Outlook 2000 makes it easy for users in your organization to communicate internally or externally by using Exchange Server, Microsoft Mail, or other third-party mail systems. Support for Post Office Protocol version 3 (POP3), Internet Mail Access Protocol version 4 (IMAP4), and Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) in Outlook 2000 allows users to communicate directly over the Internet.
In addition, Outlook 2000 automatically creates hyperlinks for any URL contained in an e-mail message or any other Outlook 2000 item. Using Mail Recipient command (File menu, Send To submenu), you can send the following Office 2000 files as HTML-based e-mail messages:

By using Outlook 2000 and Exchange Server, you can share information with other people in your organization. For example, you can publish in a public folder such items as:

Toolbox The Microsoft Office Resource Kit for Office 97/98 provides additional information about using public folders. This archive edition is included in its entirety in the Microsoft Office 2000 Resource Kit. For more information, see Microsoft Office Resource Kit for Office 97/98.

For workgroups and enterprises, Outlook 2000, combined with Microsoft Exchange Server, is a complete solution for developing and deploying a wide variety of collaborative applications, from contact management solutions for workgroups to enterprise-wide workflow and tracking applications.
