[2007] Unable to receive, able to send e-mail

[Dennis van der Stelt]

Hi there,

I had two mailboxes in my Outlook 2003, when I upgraded to Office (and
Outlook) 2007. One on our Exchange Server, to which I only connect at work.
The other are all mails from this exchange server kept locally. So one is on
exchange, the other is a local .pst files I transfer all mails to.

Since I've installed Office 2007 Beta 2, it seems the "view" on my exchange
mailbox won't update. I see an empty inbox, while there are mails in my
exchange-inbox. I see mails in my "sent items" box, but not the latest sent
items that are actually on my exchange-sent-items-box.

I can send e-mails however! When I send a mail to myself, I can check my OWA
(Webmail) and I see my own mail arrive there. But it doesn't show in Outlook
2007.

In "Account Settings...", when I click repair and press "Next" immediatly,
when searching for settings, it times out and cannot connect to the server.

Any idea anyone?!

Thanks,
Dennis van der Stelt

Disable all your add-ins and try with a clean mail profile. I cannot really
get it from your post what your default delivery location is but note that
in BETA 2 you cannot have an Exchange account configured with a pst-file as
the default delivery location.

I am experiencing the same problem!

Have you been able to resolve this?

Thanks

True, Default delivery location I cannot find.

But when I try "Send and Receive..." for my account on the Exchange Server,
I get an error. But no error is showing. It's just saying it cannot connect.
Whereas Outlook 2003 did not give me any problems.

I've deleted my Exchange account. I reconnected just now. It's trying to sync
the inbox folder or something, but I get this error after a very long time :

Task 'Microsoft Exchange Server - Receiving' reported error (0x80040102) :
'The requested operation cannot be performed on this account'

The inbox is still empty.

Any idea?! It definitly worked on Outlook 2003!

I have the same issue, but I believe Roady answered it for us. He said that
Oulook Beta 2 is unable to deliver Exchange based mail to a PST file as in
previous versions of outlook. I use the PST file as a lazy way of not having
to clean out my exchange mail box. My company has mailbox size limits that
are very small - so i have all my new mail go to a local pst file. It has
worked well for me in the past. Roady, my question to you: Is this only a
beta 2 limitation (it worked in Beta 1) or will this be by design for outlook
2007?

Thanks!
