I've been using both Crossover Plugin and Crossover Office for over 2 
months now, and never had that experience.  Overall it's been quite a 
postive experience (well, considering how positive an experience one 
can actually have in a Microsoft environment ;)

Yes, you might argue that, and I might even agree with you should you 
ever decide to :)

That said, I convinced IS to turn the Exchange server's 
IMAP server on, so now I'm fetchmailing and procmailing my work e-mail
as well. (Actually, I now even have SpamAssasin tagging my corp. spam :)
