how do I change the user on outlook 2000?
I've recently moved to a new office and my computer was used by someone else
before me. I want to be able to set up Outlook for myself as it's currently under the previous user. The operating system onthis computer is Windows 2000, so it's Outlook 2000. My own IT helpdesk couldn't help and they suggested installing Office 2007 which isn't compatible with the operating sytem. |

Use Control Panel- Mail to reconfigure the mail profile or start a new one
(depending on your installation mode.

I've tried this. I do everything I'm meant to but for whatever reason it just
doesn't work. When I go back into properties all my details are there but it's not my inbox and folders and it won't allow me to send or recieve mails using outlook "Roady [MVP]" wrote: Use Control Panel- Mail to reconfigure the mail profile or start a new one (depending on your installation mode.

Which mail account type are you using?
Ask the IT department to set up a completely new username and mailbox for you instead of renaming the one of the old employee. Then you can log in with your own details on that machine and there wouldn't be any settings left behind by the old user. -- Robert Sparnaaij [MVP-Outlook] Coauthor, Configuring Microsoft Outlook 2003 http://www.howto-outlook.com/ Outlook FAQ, HowTo, Downloads, Add-Ins and more http://www.msoutlook.info/ Real World Questions, Real World Answers ----- "smoy" wrote in message ...
