Hey All - I need to re-configure my MS Outlook 2007. Upon installing - I
opened outlook for the first time and figured I'd set it up with my exchange
server - since then I get the error message "The connection to MS Exchange is
unavailable. Outlook must be online or connected to complete this action."

Now - I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the software several times
and I get the same error message.

All I want to do is reset the program and set up and account as an iMAP or
even POP3, but I am stuck and cannot get passed this error.

How do I completely undo the exchange configuration attempt so I can set up
a regular account.

Pls advise - thank you,
g

Use the mail applet in the control panel to add/remove account settings or
start a new mail profile and then delete the old mail profile.

Neo - Thank you for the reply. I was looking diligently for the for "Mail"
in my control panel - could not find it - then I happen to find it in "32-bit
control" - from there I was able to sort out my issue. Thank you for the
help!
