Lookout

search plug-in for MS Outlook

Our Rating: (Very Good!)

Lookout is a search add-in for Microsoft Outlook, that allows you to quickly search through the content of your mail folders. Unlike the built-in search feature which tends to be rather slow, Lookout indexes your mail on a regular schedule, and produces almost instant results. It also offers advanced search options that enable you to limit the keyword search to recipients, dates, attachments and more. Lookout was purchased by Microsoft and discontinued (?) but it still works fine with Outlook 2000/2003, visit the homepage for instructions on how to make it work with Outlook 2007.
