Russ, what are the implications of the "automatically generate
Microsoft
exchange views"?
Could having this active be part of my problem?
Thx, pjl
That would suggest that the email addresses in these Contact Records are
corrupt. Have you examined them?

Russ, thx and I'm on the case. Just FYI, my problem seems to be
related
to
contacts that show in the address line as "name(name)" rather than the
normal "name(
[email protected])".
I have tried to find the source of this name(name) business and
eliminate
it. Am I chasing the wrong phantom? How can I eliminate this
behavior?
TIA, pjl
Yes it does. This is what you want to do.
Go ahead and create a new profile, then use this method to reset it to
use
your old PST file.

Does this apply to OL 2002?

Russ, thx for the diagnosis. I'm having a problem with not knowing
how
to
do that. Did I accept a default? Is my Outlook data file the
"outlook.pst"
that I think is in the default location?
Can you please point me to a set of instructions on this
subject?
BTW, I'm still getting phantoms. When I set up the new profile, I
added
(mistakenly) my spouses email account, which we need to check from
my
machine on occasion. Then I found that I could not turn that
account
off
in
OL2002, like in OL 2000. Then I deleted it, yet my phantom address
still
is
sent messages from this "dead" location. What gives with this? I
guess
that I need to set up another profile and not make the same
mistake,
correct?
TIA, pjl
When you created the profile, you should have designated your
former
Outlook
data file as its data source.

OK, got the new profile created and running.
How do I populate this profile with all the stuff in my old
profile?
The import option does not show an Outlook option, and I'm
brain
dead
on
other options.
Thx, pjl

The best way to fix all the problems that upgrading from
IMO
will
cause
is
simply to create a new Outlook profile. Let's do that
first.
Make
sure
you
recreate your mail accounts from scratch and use the same
Outlook
Data
file
you were using before.
The instructions here will apply to Outlook 2002:

The following is a message I get from the system admin. It
is
coming
from
an account that I have inactivated in send receive
groups,
and
is
going
to
an email address that I have removed from my contacts.
Please explain and please help. This is OL 2002 upgrade
from
IMO
OL
2000
(which Russ says is a bad idea, but I'm there and don't know
how
to
go
back
or recover)
Thx, pjl
