I'm using Outlook 2003 but dont have Office 2003 installed, therefore I dont have the Change Office User Settings page. &nbsp;Within Outlook if I go Tools | Options\Other\Advanced I do have an option to save messages in Unicode format but this does not help.<br />

Hi,<br />
<br />
If I dragged a message from Outlook 2000 onto my desktop and the file already exists Outlook renamed the file by appending (2) to the filename, Outlook 2003 does not do this. &nbsp;For example, I have an email titled Test. &nbsp;If I drag the message onto my desktop it creates a file called Test.msg if I drag the same message onto my desktop again it creates a file called Test(2).msg and so on. &nbsp;I have now upgraded to Outlook 2003 and if I try the same operation I get prompted to overwrite the existing file. &nbsp;Is it possible to set Outlook 2003 to automatically change filenames like Outlook 200 did.<br />
<br />
Thanks<br />
