I would like to provide MS outlook 2007 to my Mac users. We currently use Entourage but it's not great as an Exchange client in a large organisation. I published Outlook using XenApp 4.5 and launched it in Leopard using the ICA client 10.00.600. The app works OK but I would love to be able to open attachments using the Mac applications (things like InDesign and PhotoShop CS3) directly instead of having to save them off to the network.

Server to Client  redirection seems to be limited to a set of content types / file extensions so this doesn't help.

Any suggestions would be greatfully received.

We have seen that Outlook 2007 is rather memory intensive (improved with Outlook 2010, which I have just now published), so how many clients are you talking about?  I just published the apps that I need on those servers that are hosting Outlook.  By default, the app is available for use when they click on the attachment.  Photoshop isn't an app that people generally use via Citrix in my environment, so it's not a big problem.
