Outlook 2003 Crashes receiving and sending email
Hello
I have been using office 2003 for several months, but over the last few weeks I have been having a problem with outlook crashing intermitantly when sending and receiving certain emails. I get the report error to microsoft pop up eash time. I have taken a number of steps to try and locate the exact cause of the problem, but have so far not found the exact cause and therefore cannot solve the problem. I firstly installed Sp2 Then un-installed ella spam control plug in for outlook Then created a new .pst file, only copying over contacts Then un-installed office 2003, ran a reg cleaner and then re-installed office 2003. Then turned off junk mail filters in outlook. None of the above worked. It was crashing only with HTML emails, but it has also crashed sending plain text emails. I am now using outlook express, because outlook is un-useable in its current state. Please can anyone out there maybe offer any more advise on what i can try to resolve? thanks kieren |

Outlook 2003 Crashes receiving and sending email
Try a new mail profile after you run scanpst.exe against your .pst file.
Configure the new profile to reuse your current .pst file. -- Milly Staples [MVP - Outlook] Post all replies to the group to keep the discussion intact.

Outlook 2003 Crashes receiving and sending email
ok
I ran scanpst.exe against the original .pst file I was using, and it repaired some errors I then deleted and created a totally new profile with a new name the only thing i wasnt sure if I did correctly was configure the new profile to use current .pst what i did was import contacts, mail etc from current .pst into the new .pst I wasnt sure if this was correct? Unfortunately the problem remains... a few emails arrived ok, but when i tried to forward a basic plain text email to one of my contacts it crashed again!! Could this be because i did not configure profile correctly? thanks kieren "Milly Staples [MVP - Outlook]" wrote in message ...
