A new, free plug-in module for Outlook called Xobni (pronounced 'ZOB-nee,' which is inbox spelled backwards) adds some social-networking and data-mining features to your existing Outlook e-mail. Once installed, it lives as a vertical panel on the right side of your Outlook screen and doesn't block or intrude upon Outlook's own panes or functions.
Xobni indexes all of your stored e-mail, starting with the most recent messages. Once your e-mail is indexed, the Xobni sidebar shows a profile of the sender for any e-mail you have selected in the message list in your inbox or other folders. Each profile is divided into different sections, including a search box that is much faster than Outlook's search function.
Other sections include the name of the sender for any e-mail you have selected, with a photo (if available), a phone number, and a bar chart showing how many e-mails you've received from that person, as well as times of day when that person appears to be most or least active on e-mail. Also included is the sender's e-mail network—other people included in e-mails to you, 'Conversations' which display e-mail threads (other e-mails you've exchanged with the sender), and a section which lists all the files that are attachments on received e-mails.
Give Xobni a try! It might make your Outlook e-mail more useful.
