A hotfix package addressing, among other things, an issue originally introduced in the February Cumulative Update and later included in the Service Pack 2 for Microsoft Office 2007 is now available for download via the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

973404 : Description of the Outlook 2007 hotfix package (Outlook.msp): August 25, 2009

Even though the latest releases of Lucatec® Mask already contain a partial workaround for the issue fixed by this update, it is strongly recommended that all customers using Outlook 2007 SP2 install this hotfix package to reestablish completely correct functionality of Microsoft Outlook 2007 regarding sender data stored in Sent Items.

The hotfix package quoted above is part of the Office 2007 Cumulative Update for August 2009. You can find descriptions of hotfix packages for other Office components also included in the August cumulative update in the following article:

Before that patch all users with the “Full mailbox access” privilege implicitly had the “Send As” privilege as well. Now you have to grant this right explicitly. More details and a script for automating this are available from the Knowledge Base article describing the change which is linked below.
