Default Outlook 2007 Beta 2 - BIG problems

I Think that's what I've just done,

I'll retry without th Nod 32 installed but as it was deactivated

at least I've tried fortunatelly with tests accounts

Sandy, I've only uninstalled Outlook 2007 and kept Word and excel to see,
I've reinstalled Outlook 2003 and I have nothing more to do to restore my
mails except those where the content was erased.

Sandy,

If you go back to Office/Outlook 2003, you will definitely need to delete
your mail profile. Reboot. Create a new mail profile.

As for the blank message(s), I am unable to duplicate when connecting to a
Microsoft Exchange 2003 (with Service Pack 2) on Windows 2003 (SP1). Just
so you know, Outlook 2007 B2 for me is running in cached mode and I tried
both connection types (RPC over HTTPS and TCP). What Russ really wanted to
know is what type of mail account is giving you an issue (POP3, IMAP,
Exchange) and what is the default delivery location. If it happens to be a
personal folders file (PST), is it the Outlook 97/2002 flavor or the newer
one.


Papaours,
Do you have any security products installed (antivirus, antispam, .etc) that
can scan e-mail? If you do, I always suggest uninstalling these products
and then retrying on a system that is nothing more than Operating System +
Beta product. After all, the point of running a beta product is to find out
where the break is so it can be reported back to the vendor.

OK I'm prepared to swallow the fact that the emails I received in Outlook
2007 Beta 2 are screwed beyond repair. I accept I am stupid for expecting
MS
Outlook 2007 Beta 2 to enable me to, you know, read my emails, and, maybe
even reply to them.

I accept that it appears MS Outlook 2007 Beta 2 was not designed to do
that.

So if I uninstall it, do I get my Office 2003 back and the facility to
read
my email? Or have I made a big boo boo?

Did you do that? Did it work with just an uninstall?

Provide complete details on how you installed the beta and migrated
data and
account settings.
Always create a new profile when you try an upgrade installation.

news Errr. OK, I realise this is a Beta. I understand it is a Beta 2.

I know things dont always work as they should and that I should not
'rely'
on Beta software of any kind.

However, I 'think' I am safe in assuming that Outlook 2007 Beta 2
should
be
able to receive my email and actually SHOW me the content....

I am concerned, I installed it, it runs (sort of OK), it appears to
do
what
it says it should, BUT, EVERY EMAIL I HAVE RECEIVED IN Outlook 2007
Beta 2
since I installed it IS BROKEN. I CANNOT SEE ANY CONTENT IN ANY
EMAIL
RECEIVED.

They come into my inbox, but if you look at the space below you
will see
how
Outlook renders them....


































So I am worried - surely a BETA2 would actually show me the
email!!! I
cannot imagine MS sending this out to folks.....

How do I view my emails?
