One thing I really find difficult when using Outlook (2007) is that
every email i have open (say 20 mails) is in a different window and i
have to go to the task bar (or alt tab through the apps) to find out
wheat I have open.

A tabbed approach is pretty comnmon now, works great in Lotis Notes,
IE7 does it, Firefox does and many other apps too. It's an increadible
usability/productivtity downgrade the way it is by default.

If I have 20 emails open, I don't want to be alt-tabbing through an 19
apps either.

Surely this is a feature somwehere that isn't clearly documentred ??

Any ideas ?

there is no hidden undocumented feature - outlook does not use a tabbed
interface.
