outlook is looking for non existent exchange server and will not .

[Dave Holobaugh]

I just installed Outlook 2003 and downloaded updates, but when I try to open
it it says it cannot find my exchange server. I do not have an exchange
server. I am a single user. When I try to open it offline it will not open
because certain pst files do not exist. Something is configured wrong but I
don't know what it is. Can anyone help me?

Control Panel->Mail Icon->remove the Exchange account. Why did you install
one when you knew you did not have Exchange server?

I didn't. It must have done it itself during installation. Thanks for your
help. It worked. Again, thanks for your help.
