Pressing the "mail" button on my computer keyboard displays the STARTUP
FOLDER in Outlook 2003. If the "inbox" is not selected as Outlook's startup
folder the keyboard's mail button can't work properly. The 2002 version did
not have this problem. My preference is to select "calendar" as my Outlook
startup folder so of course when I press my keyboard's mail button it takes
me to my calendar. I think that my settings are correct and that this is a
problem that Microsoft needs to correct.

It's not a bug in Outlook, it's a bug in how you've defined the mail button
on your computer. Use the Control Panel for the buttons to have Outlook
open the way you want. The shortcut should be

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office11\outlook.exe" /select
outlook:Inbox

Be sure to include the quotes and spaces.
