1. Has anyone tried OWA with any of the WM5 builds (Artz, Hari, Tuma, Logout, Ivan, etc.)? I can hit the start page and get a log in prompt, but after typing them in it usually goes into a credential prompting loop and eventually errors out with access denied. Occasionally I can get to the "main page", but as soon as I try to look at a message, it will error out. This worked great in WM2003[SE]. I really miss this because...

2. Our IT has set a "always request and respond to read receipts" policy in Outlook. The only [easy] way around this is to use OWA on the desktop and just not click the "read receipt requested" link. This doesn't seem possible in the Outlook E-mail app on the device because it always sends them without asking. Sometimes you don't want people to know you've read their email just yet. ;)

3. Is there any way to request a read receipt in the Outlook E-mail application on the device? It syncs great every five minutes over GPRS, but it seems to ignore the "force read receipt request" policy in Outlook on the desktop when I send anything. So, is there any way to set that on email originating from the device? Sometimes it is nice to know when people have read your email. :)

P.S. I haven't tried changing the browser agent for the OWA problem. Maybe I'll try that...

Thanks from someone greatly enjoying Hari's 1.3.2,
