    - Messages Queued For Deferred Delivery Problem I have a weird problem... Messages are piling up in my "Messages Queued for Deferred Delivery folder. I'm using Server 2003 and Exchange 2003. Most of the messages appear to be to non-existent users in two domains that I'm hosting on the server. They're coming from all over the map so I can't pinpoint any one domain or computer that's sending them. The other weird thing is that in my queue list I'm getting folders named "Default Connector - abc.com (SMTP Connector)" where abc.com are the domains to which the mail is being sent. I set the recipient filter to filter out mail for non-existent users, but it doesn't seem to be working in this case. I've beenbeatingon this for about a week now so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, BB Tag: Outlook 2003 in Vista waiting on ext. drives before displaying mai Tag: 577939

    - Dynamic Distribution Lists or Categories It was suggested to several discussion participants who had questions about problems emailing large or multiple distribution lists, that distribution lists were not very reliable and that grouping by contact categories is better. My question is: It does not appear very easy to send a message to more than one grouped category in the same message box. Using the shift key to select more than one grouped category didn't work.

    - Connecting to Exchange without being logged into network as domain At my workplace, our company uses a Windows Server 2003 domain network, and we're going to be migrated to an Exchange 2007 server (we had a POP3/SMTP server for email until now). Local client is Outlook 2003. My problem is that, although I do have a domain user login, I never used it to log into my machine in years. I use a separate local workstation login and connect to server shares and the POP/SMTP server manually (with the domain user login and password). My machine is heavily customized (user-based), those customizations would be destroyed if I have to move to a different user profile on my machine. So I'm looking for a way to keep logging in to my machine as user "B" (not a member of the domain) while connecting to the Exchange server over the LAN as user "A". Is there any way to do that? From searching the net, I couldn't find anything. BTW: There is no IMAP functionality set up for the Exchange server (AFAIK, Exchange could do that), so I cannot use that as a workaround for mail. Any hints? -- Please reply to group only. Direct reply via email will not be read. Tag: Outlook 2003 in Vista waiting on ext. drives before displaying mai Tag: 577921

    - "Operation failed" when trying to save For two days I've been getting an "Operation Failed" message when trying to save mail to my usual place (not in Outlook's personal folders). I have run the Office 2007 diagnostics and no problem was reported. I tried to run "repair" Microsoft Office from the Control Panel, but got the following message: "Error 1310. Error writing to file: C:\config.msi\9766d.rbf Verify that you have access to that directory" I have failed to even find that file or folder on my hard drive. I also do not know if the latter problem has anything to do with my Outlook problem. I have "repaired" Office 2007 in the past with no problem. The most recent software I have installed is Carbonite, the online storage program, and ESET NOD32 antivirus. However, they produced no immediate problem with Outlook. I have also tried disabling both programs to see if I can save my mail, but it made no difference.

    - BCC field in Sent Items I'm currently using Outlook 2003 (part of an Office package) at work. For a majority of the emails I send, I can no longer view the BCC field in my Sent Items. If it's to a small list of recipients, it usually shows (although not always), but when I send mass emails (which is my job -- I send bulk email communications for my firm), the names no longer show up in the bcc field in the Sent Item. Oddly, if I do a "find" search in my Sent Items folder, I can see that a message went to someone, but when I open the message, it doesn't actually show their display name in the BCC field. This is especially problematic for the "I didn't get that message" complaints. I can't believe this is an "upgrade" from the previous version, but I've never had a problem with this in any other version we used before. Please don't answer "upgrade", as that's not an option when you work at a large firm and don't have control over which software you use. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

    - Resetting Outlook to a first run condition We have upgraded from Microsoft Office 2003 to Office 2007 on all of our networked computers. If a user logs in to their system for the for the first time after the upgrade and trys to start Outlook with out first starting the Word application (as they have been directed to) Outlook will not open correctly and request information such as Exchange server name ect. (which the user does not have). The only way that I have been able to correct this issue is to rename the user's profile, and then have the user log back in and re-create their profile and start with the Word application before trying to open Outlook. Older versions of Outlook had a fix that would reset Outlook to a first run condition, and I'm wondering if there is a simular fix for Outlook 2007.

I drag the fields into the following Outlook fields: Name=Subject Date=All Day Event Type of Leave=Location However only the active buttons are Next, Previous, and Cancel.

    - Help please!! copying e-mails into a new computer including the date field.. Hi all, hopefully someone here can tell me if this is possible as I haven't been able to find a way to do this. the story goes, I bought a new computer, loaded my office suite (2003 pro) onto it and proceeded to load the address book files I'd copied (.csv files) into outlook by importing them. Come to find out after importing them the date field isn't included with all the imported/saved e-mails. The column is there but instead of a date it reads "None". I also pulled the hard drive from the old machine & pulgged it into the new machine as a backup & so i could transfer all my other files/folders w/o hassle. since I've pulled it out of the old machine I assume I'd have to make it the primary drive again to get Outlook to access it again & display all the old e-mails which perhaps I could copy over in some other method then the one I used. I cant be the only guy who's had this problem. I don't pretend to be any kind of a computer geek either, I've reached my limit of what to do 8o . I'm hoping this is a result of my screwing it up, not that Outlook isn't capable of doing this. Does anyone know a better, more complete method of copying/importing all my old with all the fields into a new copy of Outlook? Any help / response would be greatly appreciated. thanks, Evan Tag: Outlook 2003 in Vista waiting on ext. drives before displaying mai Tag: 577819

    - OL not updating NK2 file on exit - loses AutoComplete email addresses Hi all, I have the latest Outlook 2007 but for a month have noted that it no longer saves changes to the AutoComplete email addresses that are held in the My Profile.nk2 file. I believe this is because OL is not shutting down properly, however I have closed all other tasks/services that could be using it. If I Ctrl+Alt+Del to kill outlook.exe, then it does not save to NK2, yet there is no other way to close OL. At least I think that's the reason NK2 is not updating. I did some experiments and did get Outlook to close by itself, and it DID save NK2 changes that one time, but it has not been able to close by itself since. Is there a way to make saving of NK2 more regular? Tag: Outlook 2003 in Vista waiting on ext. drives before displaying mai Tag: 577794

    - Autocompleted Email Addresses Email addresses automatically complete when typing the 1st letter(s) in the "to", or "cc" fields of an Outlook email message. That's great. But why do the autocomplete entries resemble those from other people's address books instead of mine? For instance, the first time I send an email it is to "Firstname Lastname (email@company.com)", so I can see their full name, in addition to their email address. That works fine until I receive an email from somebody else who cc's that same person but doesn't have as clean of a definition for their name. Once I click "reply-to-all", Outlooks decides to redefine my autocomplete for that contact. So now I have the truncated email@company.com, which might not have any relationship to the person's name. How can I prevent Outlook from replacing my definition of a contact in the autocomplete function with other users' cc definitions? Thanks!

I am running Windows Vista Ultmimate with Office 2003.

I have several external hard drives for photo storage as well as system
backups, etc. These drives are not referenced in outlook as far as I can
determine. However,
Outlook will wait for these external drives (Forever) to spin up before
displaying
email or accessing the POP server.

PLEASE is there any way to stop outlook waiting for these disks to spin up?
Thanks in advance!!!

it shouldn't spin them up for checking email but will when you try to save
