That error often means there is a problem with the pst and it should (but
doesn't always) create a new one when it can't find your pst.

installing Office 2003. Prior to it I was using Office XP(2002). I have been
able to set up my email account using the Control Panel/Mail icon and connect

message - "Unable to open your default e-mail folders. You must connect to
your Microsoft Exchange Server computer with the current profile before you
