Outlook 2007 and IMAP categories

[crazy]

I was quite shocked to see that my IMAP emails cant be categorized in Outlook 2007 (the emails dont have the right-click Categorize menu, and it doesnt show in the toolbar on top.)

Now interestingly, in the Custom View, on selecting Categories, it then shows up and allows to categorize it. My question is, this looks like an unintentional feature in Outlook so will there be any problems if I continue using this?

Also, how do I save the newly created view as the default view?

Much appreciated.

Not sure.

Do you have Office 2007 SP1 installed?  Try that and see if it's available by default.
