Well I realize there is a risk because it is "beta" software, but how
can I test it / use it, if I don't go and get mail, send mail, etc.
etc.

I think multiple snapshot backups of

C:\Documents and Settings\JJ\Local Settings\Application
Data\Microsoft\Outlook\Outlook.pst

C:\Documents and Settings\JJ\Local Settings\Application
Data\Microsoft\Outlook\archive.pst

C:\Documents and Settings\JJ\Local Settings\Application

Jackson-00000010.pst

is probably a good idea in case Outlook 2007 crashes the .pst file(s),
but my question was, in theory, the file structure has not changed ???
and assuming no corruption due to a bug, Outlook 2003 can still read a
..pst file that has been updated by daily use with Outlook 2007??
