Outlook.pst not shrinking
I'm running Outlook 2003 on XP Pro/Media Center Ed. My outlook.pst file was approaching 700 MB, and I wanted to keep it small enough to fit on a CD, so I permanently deleted a bunch of messages and archived a bunch more -- and now the file is bigger than ever! What am I missing? Did you empty the Deleted Items Folder then compact the file? Check out Advanced... in the File Properties. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "John" <anonymous@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:09de01c42580$73eba080$a601280a@phx.gbl... > I'm running Outlook 2003 on XP Pro/M...

unable to send to certain contacts
Hello, Last weekend we moved out of Exchange to Google for our emails. Now I'm having problems sending emails to certain contacts that get auto- completed in Outlook's address bar. I'm hoping by hand-typing in the email addresses, the people will receive the mails, but I'm not sure. My other coworker had the same problem and we fixed it by creating a new profile and laboriously copied over all the pst's. Is there some fix for this? thanks, kobiianardo Just delete your autocompletion cache and let it get recreated. -- Russ Valentine "kobiianardo&quo...

.pst question
Outlook/Exchange novice here.... I have a user that has archived files to different areas on his laptop. He wants them all to appear in his folder list under Archive Folders.

In other words, what is the proper procedure to restore these archived files that are not where Outlook 2k sees them so that they can be viewed in his Archive Folders list?

Delivey receipts
We have exchange 2000 and use outlook 2002/2003. One member of staff says she used to be able to generate delivery as well as read receipts internally. But now only gets read receipts. But requests to external mail addresses still generate delivery receipts if requested and a read receipt if manually acknowledged by the recipient. I understand that delivery receipts are a server function - how can they get turned off and how can I rectify this matter please? I've never seen them turned off, but why would anybody want delivery receipts for internal e-mails? It's the same ser...

"Unable to add the server junk e-mail lists"
When a user runs Outlook, he gets an error that states it is "[u]nable to add the server junk e-mail lists, you are over the size allowed on the server." He clicks to "Manage Lists..." but there's nothing listed, since we don't use Outlook's Junk E-mail filtering. Sometimes he's able to click Cancel and get through it and sometimes it locks him up. Any ideas? Logon to OWA and look at the Junk E-mail filter settings there; how many addresses are listed? Up to 1024 are allowed. See http://www.msoutlook.info/question/297 -- Robert Sparnaaij [...

Why outlook becomes so slow when it preview or open an email with attachment whatever the size of the attachment is. And my numer of total emails is less than 100.The network connection is good, transfering files is fast. Instant message is disabled. What else can I do to deal with the trouble?? Thanks a lot.

Missing import filter for Word! Like "WordPerfect 5.1 (UNIX)" ...
I'm missing much import filter on Office-Mac (specially WordPerfect 5.1 UNIX for Word.mac). Office 95/97/2000/XP for windows have much more useful import filter.

How to have small attachments come opened in the main email. My w.
