Tried dragging an email from Outlook 2013 into a grid item, it turns blue, shows the message notification and ID# and seems to be a link but single clicking/double clicking/ctrl + click does nothing. Copy just copies the header text not a link. I even tried dragging into the hyperlink box but still nothing. It acts the same as it did in InfoQube0.9.26PreRel25, it looks like a link but does not open the link like with Thunderbird and does not show the body of the email in the html pane.

Can you provide some screenshots?
Normally, when you click on the hyperlink, Outlook should open and display the item (the content is not shown in the HTML pane..)
 
BTW, for this to work, you must make sure that the Outlook protocol is registered. In the setup package, I provide a file (outlook2007ProtocolRegistryFix.reg) to enable this protocol for Outlook 2007. Similar ones may be required for other version of Outlook

The steps for Outlook 2010 and 2013 are the same, except you will use Office14 or Office15 in the path.

  1. Open the registry editor and select root key HKEY_CLASS_ROOT
  2. Add a new Key named “outlook”
  3. Edit the (Default) string value and add URL:Outlook Folders
  4. Add the new string value “URL Protocol”, no string value is required
  5. Add subkeys \shell\open\command
  6. Select the Default Icon key and enter:
  7. C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12\OUTLOOK.EXE
    Note: If you are using a 64-bit Windows operating system with 32-bit Outlook, then instead of “Program Files” use “Program Files (x86)”.
  8. Select the command key value under shell\open, edit the (Default) string value and add the following string: (Note this assumes you installed Office in the default location/) You need to include the double quotes in the string.
    9. "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12\OUTLOOK.EXE" /select "%1"

You can test it by clicking here. If Outlook opens to your Inbox, the keys were created correctly.
