I didn't really define anything: Outlook 2007 just seemed to load up the
settings from before which worked perfectly in 2003. What 's the standard
way to check? I've tried Tools-Accounts, then select my default account and
Change. The settings are fine as far as I can see and the (SMTP) mail server
is clearly indicated. I can't think what's changed. ISP is Tiscali and I've
just checked their site and it shows the same window as in my Outlook. I'm
baffled.
Only one instance of Outlook can be installed on a host. Did you uninstall
OL2003 before you installed Office 2007 (with its OL2007)? Or did the
install of Office 2007 offer to uninstall OL2003 after you chose to change
to OL2007?
Did you try deleting the e-mail account in Outlook and then creating a new
one for it? Are you using POP, IMAP, or HTTP/Deltasync to access your
mailbox? If using IMAP or Deltasync, and as a precaution, save a copy of
the .pst file for those message stores before deleting and recreating the
account. All POP and Exchange accounts are aggregated under one message
store; however, IMAP and HTTP accounts each get their own separate message
store (.pst file).
