Hi Jacques,

You're right about OL97, it needs not just registry access but to write to the PST file in the folder C:\Windows and in the Program Files.

But, OL2003 should not need Power user privileges, since all necessary files and configurations are located in the user's folder under c:\documents and settings.

Hi Chris,

I believe that an outlook user needs to be a power user to function
correctly.  We had a similar problem with OL97 a few years back (also
the spell check would not work).  Making the user a LOCAL power User
resolved the trouble.  Hopefully with you policies the user can be a
local power user.

Subject: [IMail Forum] Way OT - Outlook 2003

Hello list

This is way off topic, but if any on knows it'll be one of you guys.

I recently upgraded all my users to MSOffice 2003 from MSO2K with very
little fuss except for two users.

They previously used eudora as their mail client, but I had transferred
the mail and uninstalled eudora before the office install.

Outlook will run but not send or receive email.  It works perfectly when
I log on as local/domain admin.  Giving the users local admin rights to
their PC's allows Outlook to work correctly.

The rest of office works as expected, if I "test the account settings"
in outlook it works (all the green ticks) just the mail transport fails.

I cannot understand why 2 out of 150 installs did not work.  Has any one
seen this behaviour?  Can you give me a clue?

Thanks - Chris
