Outlook 2002 Mail and address book

dishon · 15th April 2003

I have just got XPpro and I am now using Outlook 2002. After a fight I got my address book into the contacts and can download my mail account which comes off an IMAP server.

I can make my IMAP account the default account but Outlook still sets up a second inbox etc which when outlook opens it defaults to. As does the address book.

How can I get rid of the Inbox which appears under "Outlook Today - [Personal Folders]?

How do I get the contacts to be the default address book?

Ta,

To get rid of the Personal Folder go to the Control Panel and double click Mail, click on the Data Files button, the personal folder should show up there and you have several options.

To start in a specific folder, in Outlook 2K2 got to Tools, Options, click on the Other tab, click the Advanced Options button and right at the top where it says Startup in this folder: is where you choose what to open to.
