Guilty as charged.... Sure there are others (mostly Danes and some 
fellow Swedes), but I'd guess I'm responsible for most of these.

Nope, not really. Or at least in my case it's a question about prefs
and l10n (In the real OL I'm set with an english locale and swedish
regional settings ... this one will make replies start with RE: ... But
when using OWA I'm suddenly using a swedish locale. Sigh. And sometimes
(often:) I'm to lazy to fix the subject line).

And you think I haven't? And the ongoing office-war hasn't gone down
the particular trench where the m-sexchange-person has disabled both
POP and IMAP? And (since he prefered a "secure" OWA solution) that
the <expletive removed> server is so tightly wound that I can't get
at it with the evolution exchange connector? All done with the
blessing of the PHB, who actually set that corporate policy mandating
how I am supposed to read my mail. Oh well.

But it's been noted, I'll make an effort to fix the SV:/RE: thing in
the future.
