In my experience, 8,000 to 10,0000 messages are way too many for Outlook
to handle gracefully. Having a large number of message in a folder,
especially in the Inbox, can slow operations greatly.

I use Outlook at work because I must, and OE at home, by choice. I've
never experienced data corruption with either, so I can't say anything
about the relative chances.

So then is MS Outlook a better option than Outlook express? Can Outlook
accept more emails than OE?

Are corruption chances lesser with Ms Outlook than OE?
