I am currently trying out IMAP vs POP3 (which I have used so far), but notice some strange quicks in Outlook 2007 that really make me reconsider.

Apart from the fact that all my folders now collapse by default every time I start Outlookcollapse by default every time I start Outlook, I have now also lost the ability to link a date to a flag. I can only mark an e-mail as flagged, but it will be categorized in the 'No date' section. I have completely lost the Today/Tomorrow/This Week/Someday features that I have grown to love in Outlook.

Am I missing something? Is there a way to restore this functionality?

UPDATE: I am now running Outlook 2010, but it has the same behaviour. I am guessing it is by design, but it still feels like quite a step backward to me. Any ideas are welcome.

Outlook 2007 IMAP removes the ability to create date flags?
