    @ Robert - Stand by for 5 days if you are an academic customer. There are some faculty and staff Office 365 ProPlus benefits coming which will allow access to the new Outlook for Mac. If you are not an academic customer, I am sorry about that but I am not in charge of the licensing strategy.

    It is a bit disheartening that this is not available for E1 subscribers because 2011 is full of so many bugs. It hardly operates correctly with Office 365 and is incredibly slow.
