I've been a huge fan of Microsoft Outlook 2007. The changes from Outlook 2003 aren't overwhelming, but there are nice additions such as Integrated Search, the To-Do Bar and including Auto-Preview for attachments in the Reading-Pane.

Microsoft is in the process of releasing SP2 for Microsoft Office which will include a fix for this performance issue. However, we don't have to wait for Office 2007 SP2 to get the fix!
