Well, Peter, I can't reply to some of your complaints cuz I don't use the
Reader "Pain" so this hasn't affected me....but I can reply to this one:
3) My email views typically use an "unread" filter. In XP, I could click on
the "mark as read" icon and have a msg or group disappear from view. Now it
only is marked as read and remains visible until I leave and return to the
folder. This makes my reading routine more cumbersome.
You can use the new feature....look at the bottom of your Folder List and
you will see some Search Folders...use the Unread messages one and right
click on it and click on "customize this search folder"...then add all the
folders where you want to see the unread messages...then group this search
folder by Folder and you will have all the unread messages in there, grouped
by their folders...I really like this view
Also, at the top of your folder list you see Favorite Folders? You can just
drag your Unread Messages folder up to there, so it's easily seen and
accessible from there.
If you want to see more about how these views have been greatly improved (in
my opinion), read my review here:

It sounds to me like you are still trying to control your views in the
Outlook 2002 way...if you get into the new features, I think you will see
that the views are even more customizable than ever.

There is much to like added to Outlook 11. However, I am dismayed at what
was changed or removed.
