    - Sig when reply to RTF When replying to RTF messages, my Signature font increases from 8 or 9 to 12 or 14 pts. When replying to HTML messages, the font is fine. I use Trebuchet MS font (my company's mandated font on all correspondence). Is there any way to correct this? It looks very silly for my signature to be huge!

    - Automatically expand group if new email arrives in subfolder? I have created several rules to move incoming messages to designated subfolders, but now I am unaware of new messages because they do not trigger a new message alert since they are moved from the Inbox upon arrival. Is it possible to setup a group to automatically expand if a new message arrives in a subfolder? Any other suggestions to "see" new messages arriving into a subfolder? Thank you!

    - Using Gmail in my Outlook Hi, I am Diala. I am using Gmail in Microsoft Outlook 2003. Everytime I send an email and copy myself, all recipients receive my email except me. But if I open my gmail account from the explorer I find the email sent from Me to Me. The only way I can get this email in my Outlook Inbox is to go to "gmail settings" from the explorer and "Enable POP for all mail" which means I'll receive a copy of all emails again inluding the OLD ones (which are already in my outlook inbox). Any Advise please, please. Thanks, Diala dialaballout@hotmail.com Tag: Calendar item reminder Tag: 591173

    - Outlook 2003 OLE forms error Due to a corrupted local profile I had to remove/delete and reset a local profile on one of our computers. We have a special message form that we use for outgoing mail. Prior to resetting the profile the form worked correctly. Since resetting the profile after publishing the form to the Inbox when the user tries to access the form he receives the following message. "The form you selected could not be displayed. An error occurred registering the form in the OLE registry." I have deleted the form through the forms manager, cleared the cache and republished the form with the same results. Why isn't the form registering in the OLE registry and how can I correct the problem? Thanks for any help offered. Tag: Calendar item reminder Tag: 591164

    - There appears to be a navigation error in Windows Live Mail Used this category because "Windwos Live Mail" isn't a selection option...neither is "Other". I am using Windows Live Mail with my XP operating system...all service packs are current. Windows Live Mail appears to have a navigation error. If I enter my email contacts, forget to enter a Subject, then type in my email and hit "Send" I get the message that I didn't include a Subject, do I want to continue? If I select Cancel I am returned to the email....but I cannot enter a Subject. I can place the cursor in the Subject line and type, but the typing goes into the email at the point where my cursor last was. (sorry about the grammar) Regardless of what I try I cannot enter data into the Subject line. I can send the email, it just won't have a Subject. I couldn't find a place online that would allow me to send the info to Microsoft to tell them about the apparent bug.

    - Unable to right click in the Inbox Hi All, I have a user who is unable to right click within his Inbox. We are running Outlook 2003 in an XP environment. Whenever the user right clicks in the email nothing happens however he can right click in his folder list and within the email. The user wants to be able to just right click on the email and block the sender (or delete the email) but now he has to go through the file menu to get these things done so while this is not MAJOR it is an annoyance and any help that can be given would be appreciated.

    - Email Contents Disappear After receiving an email in Outlook 2002 and viewing the email, I move onto the next email and later go back to the first email, the contents are gone. Even the size of the email has been reduced to 2 or 3 kbytes. This only seems to happen with certain senders. The only way I know of to get the content is to check my email from the webmail of my provider. Then cut and past to a document. Is there a setting that is causing the email contents to disappear? Or is it something to do with the format from the sender? Tag: Calendar item reminder Tag: 591149

    - HTML Images Get Stripped-Out Hello, I have an intermittent problem. When I send an HTML page as an e- mail, Outlook 2003 sometimes strips out the images (jpg's) and sends them as attachments. It only does this for certain HTML pages. It sends some OK. This is probably the fault of the third-party add-in that I'm using, "Send Individually". With one of our web pages it works fine, sending out the whole HTML webpage as a unified e-mail. With another webpage, it strips out the images. It actually works OK in plain old Outlook. It's only when I try to use "Send Individually" that this problem intermittently occurs. And their Tech Support people don't seem to know why. Maybe if someone is real good in HTML they could see something. This webpage gets the images stripped-out: http://www.spraymation.com/ad/Ad%202008%20308104%20Reciprocator%20Controller.htm This webpage works OK: http://www.spraymation.com/ad/Ad%205%202008%20air%20operated.htm Any help would be appreciated.

    - 2 Outlook Newbie questions Dear Outlook gurus: I've used Eudora as my email client for 25 years and know it very well. But now I've just changed jobs, and I have to learn Outlook. I'm picking it up ok, but one thing bothers me: unless I'm missing something, the "Send" button doesn't mean what it says. It appears that when I compose a message and click "Send", Outlook doesn't send it, just moves it to the Outbox. I then have to do a second step, "Send and Receive" (or a "Send All"), to actually get the message on its way. I keep forgetting to do that. Is there any way to eliminate this two-step process? Oh, and another thing: when I open an attachment, is there a way I can tell Outlook at that moment what program to use? For example, if I receive a tab-delimited .txt file, maybe I want to open it with Excel, but I want to continue to open other .txt files with a text editor. I haven't found anything other than changing the default program for the file type, and I don't want to do that. Thanks very much in advance for your kind attention.

    - "You dont have permission to perform this operation. " I have a laptop that cratered one me.. Windows XP.....I had to do a system restore from the beginning. Lost a lot but no biggie. Had Office 97 full version on it and then had the 2003 Office Upgrade. Had no problems before it crashed. Got everything fixed on the laptop. Got all the windows updated and went to upload the Office again and had problems right off the bat with 97. Couldnt find my default folders. Figured I had a Registry problem. Deleted 97 and then Went into Registry and renamed all the folders in Office to OLD. This allowed me to Load 97 again and then the 2003 upgrade. When I started 2003 I got an error "An error occured in the folder shortcuts file .fav Outlook will recreate the defualt folder shortcuts. " And I could do nothing. Kept getting the error. At this point I went to Control panel and deleted the program and then went to regedit again renamed everything and then loaded it all back up again. During the 2003 profiles being set up. Put in Pop3, SMTP strings passwords and emails address. In Tools, emails accounts. I did the test. Everything checks out. It sends and receives. I went to my hotmail to verify it is being sent and it work. I go to start a new email.... As soon as I hit the Send/recieve button in the tool bar I get the error "You dont have permission to perform this operation. " However it DOES send the email... I just can not receive emails. I saw in other posts to change the outlook .SRS files. I did a search on my c drive of all files. hidden as well. I dont see any. I went to Documents and settings/Administrator/Application data/Microsfot/office/outlook and tried to see if the files were in the outlook folder. I can not open the folder and when I hover it says the folder is empty.l. I get the error that "Outlook is not accessible. Access denied." I did go to the Documents and setting and make sure the READ ONLY was NOT checked. Yet still having the problem. Can not receive mail and the errors. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    - Disbale Outlook Connector How can I disable Outlook Connector?

All I need Outlook to do is send/receive email. I do not want or need the rest of Outlook Connector, as this is really messing up my Outlook contact notes. Thank you.

    - Inserting Symbols into Mail I searched the Help for guidance on inserting symbols into email, such as square root. The alternatives seem to be: Character Map, which is effective but long-winded, Insert, Symbol, which is not available unless you are using Word as the editor, Character code, which is fine as long as you can remember the code Autocorrect, which again assumes Word is the editor. If I don't wish to use Word, how can I get a list of character codes? I could reduce this presumably long list to those characters of interest and put those in a Note as a reminder for use during email composition. Would it be possible to create a toolbar to insert them directly in the Outlook email editor? -- Richard Search the web and raise money for charity at www.everyclick.com Tag: Calendar item reminder Tag: 591093

    - Outlook and BlackBerry I have the following questions with respect to MS Outlook and BlackBerry. 1. Is it possible to sync Outlook with a BlackBerry? If the answer to Q1 is "Yes", then... 2. Are these sync features built into Outlook and BlackBerry or are 3rd-party addons needed? 3. Are the sync features reliable? 4. How is sync implemented? (USB; Wireless; Infrared... etc) 5. Are the sync features easy to implement for a non-technical person or is a "techie" needed to setup the system? 6. Is the sync functionality available in both Outlook for Windows and Outlook for Mac and are they essentially the same? 7. Could a user have a PC, a Mac and a BlackBerry and sync all 3 systems with relative ease and without the need for complex multiple steps and 3rd-party sync software? 8. Are there any other considerations? (Outlook version, Windows version, OS X version, BlackBerry model.... etc) TiA T. Tag: Calendar item reminder Tag: 591090

    - HTML troubles Hi, I am trying to use HTML in an e-mail, just for fun, to try and spruce up my e-mail signature. However, this is hardly straight forward and so far my efforts haven't worked. I googled it, and the main option was to create the webpage in MS Word, and then use word facilities to send the html page as an e-mail. However, whenever I try and add some simply html code such as <marquee> hello world </marquee> the MS word document displays a huge red cross, and my code seems to be gone from the HTML source. Although strangely, if I open the file in internet explorer, the marquee code functions correctly. Just in Word it shows the red cross. Why is this happening??

    - Outlook 2007 w/Windows Live Outlook Connector ERROR: 0x80070057 This is the 3rd time I've had this issue on different configurations of Outlook with the outlook connector. I am getting the error upon trying to send/receive after I have deleted or added more than a few emails. It seems to have started out as a sync issue, but now it will not send/receive at all and mail just sits in the outbox. As I said before, it is a new install, so detect and repair doesn't apply (already tried it so don't suggest it). I also tried it in a different/new profile and it breaks after about a month each time, usually when I go thru my mail and delete a significant chunk of stuff. The question is: How do I get it to properly synchronize my mailbox and get back up to date? There are only a few differences between my online box on hotmail and the local cache in outlook. I would like to get to the bottom of this because I could just dump it and start over, but this would keep happening as it has in the past. Suggestions? Tag: Calendar item reminder Tag: 591067

Since I use Outlook 2007 to eventlually check my e-mails and keep my
contacts, I don't open it everyday.

My main *.pst file is password protected, but still I would like to find a
way to make Outlook remind me of calendar's upcoming events even if I don't
open it. Maybe I will need to keep calendar entries in a separate *.pst file
without password.

Is it possible? How can I do it?
