These are the minimum recommended system requirements for Outlook Connector to run. This does not take into account running multiple programs simultaneously. To run several programs on the computer at the same time, that computer should exceed these recommendations.

• MDaemon Pro 8.0 or higher, 9.0 or higher is recommended

• Microsoft Windows XP/2000/2003/Vista operating system (Only 32-bit versions of listed OS)

• Disk space: 5MB for the installation of the Outlook Connector client.
