MS outlook 2003 send mail problem

Hi,

I created a new mail account for the exchange server but am not seeing any mails (there r quite a few). I can send emails fine but cant seem to receive any..

I tried the same on another machine also running outlook 2003 and it works fine..

What could be the problem in my machine ?

I tried changing the setting for "Deliver new mail to fwg location" from Personal Folders to Mailbox (ATC) and back and nothing happens.

pl help..

The profile could be corrupt. Create a new profile and see if that helps.

How do I do that ? I know how to do it Outlook Express but not sure in Outlook .. is it Tools -> options -> add new mail account ?

If so, hv already tried that in vain :(

thnx

Start-Control Panel-Mail-Show Profiles and create a new one there.

You may need to do a Detect And Repair for the one that does not have the Preview Pane option. It is under the Help menu.
