omnifail IBM outlook search utility

[NewsBot]

Since I can no longer use Lookout with Outlook 2007 I have been looking for an email search utility. With the IBM release of OmniFind*I thought my quest was over. However it seems that Omnifind uses a indexing service and actually launches your browser to view search results. Reading what Omnifind does sounds cool (semantic search) but among other things not sure why you need to open a port on your firewall to make a email search tool work!?

 

What I don't understand is why you need a service for email search? Why you need a different UI to see the email search results? Why can't the built in search for outlook be bonified? Why is was what* Lookout did so wrong where you need to kill this feature with a 2 ton anvil?

 

(yes I'm being a nagging user)
