Dear Microsoft,<\/p>\n
This letter is regarding your product, “Exchange Server”. It is evident that you have not allocated enough resources toward a process of continual improvement for this product.<\/p>\n
Specifically, the “Message Rules” function is limited by a hard barrier of 2048k. This is even specifically mentioned on your web site, as a documented flaw in your product, and has been for several years. Yet, despite this crippling limitation, you have done nothing to pro-actively address this issue.<\/p>\n
Being of sound mind, body, and programming skills, I offer you this suggestion.<\/p>\n
1. Remove the memory limitation on user message routing rules;<\/p>\n
2. Allow users to use GROUPS to route mail messages rather than only specific e-mail addresses;<\/p>\n
3. When I drag an e-mail from the Inbox to another folder, ask me if I want to do this for future e-mails with that address. Include the “Don’t ask me this again” checkbox, for users that would be annoyed by this.<\/p>\n
Using these three simple suggestions, you can improve your product in such a way to make many people happy. By ignoring this letter, you can encourage me to continue buying GOOG stock rather than MSFT.<\/p>\n
Sincerely,<\/p>\n
