Could it be a registry permission issue? Having the two users set up a profile on another computer should reveal something.
"so Outlook is not an ideal email solution for us from the angle of attachments." Ain't that the truth! I'm glad that OL2003 allows for larger pst files. We have JPGs, XLSs and PPTs flying around, and many users apply the CYA principle. It's irritating to see a 1.9GB pst file. adamc -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Geza Levai Sent: Monday, June 19, 2006 13:54 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [IMail Forum] Way OT - Outlook 2003 Hello Chris, It seems like that you have problem with user rights or permissions on those two computers. Did you compare their local group memberships on the local computers with a user's PC that does not have problem? Did you push install Office or installed it individually on each PC? Have you tried putting these two users in the local group called "Power Users" for the sake of testing? If they go to another PC and log in, do they have the same problem with Outlook? (By the way, my firm is also using Eudora currently, but the management is really pushing the issue of switching to Outlook. Once we upgraded our Office from version 97 to 2007, I don't think we can postpone the switching. We're an architect firm where users send zillion messages with large file attachments, including CC to all persons who count, so Outlook is not an ideal email solution for us from the angle of attachments. Since (4 years ago) we switched from Netscape email to Eudora, we haven't had any email crash or corruption on the local PCs.)
