I think you'll find it was Evolution not handling standards that triggered 
this, not Outlook :)

Try working inside a supposedly secure large network with IP's based on the 
reserved 10.x.x.x & conflicting mail setups with X.400 & ESMTP trying to 
coexist, and everyone being given 'free' M$ products - you might then feel 
less didactic about which mail client is used, and how trivial this is in the 
larger scheme of things. NHS-net certainly shows you how the less IT-aware 
live.

It may well be that OE users know little - I think showing them a better way 
is good, & doing it nicely would have been better.
