Hi,

I am trying to create a .prf file for Outlook 2000 to add IMAP account
settings. Each time I try to implement it using modpref i get the error
'Unable to configure message service [Microsoft Outlook Client]'. Outlook
2000 is configured as internet email and I can add the account manually okay.

I have tested the with Outlook 2003 and it works okay so I am a bit confused.

Can someone suggest arears to need to look into to solve this please.

Thanks in advance.
 
Outlook 2000 supports IMAP only in Internet Mail Only mode, which cannot be configured with a .prf file, since it doesn't use MAPI profiles.
 
Oh well.

Thanks Sue, not the answer I wanted but at least it explains why I have been
fighting a losing battle. :(
