Installing Outlook 2003 on Vista Home Premium Service Pack 1
I am trying to install Outlook 2003 on my new machine but I get the following
message when I open Outlook.... "Unable to open your default e-mail folders. Create a new profile by double-clicking the Mail Icon in Control Panel, clicking Show Profiles, and then clicking Add." I can't find where this is in Vista. I was running XP on my old machine and Outlook was working fine. I have not yet imported by pst file. Thanks, Dave |

Installing Outlook 2003 on Vista Home Premium Service Pack 1
Are you using Vista x64? If so, Mail is under 32 bit apps group in Control
panel. Also, if you type Mail in the start search field (Start menu) the mail applet (and Windows Mail email application) will come up. The Control panel Mail has a bluish green round icon with a white envelope - if you use small icons it resembles a globe in the Start menu. -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com Outlook Tips by email: EMO - a weekly newsletter about Outlook and Exchange: You can access this newsgroup by visiting http://www.microsoft.com/office/comm...s/default.mspx or point your newsreader to msnews.microsoft.com.
