Default Upgraded Hard Drive, Now Outlook 2003 won't receive messages

I agree. I simply wanted to correct the assertion that you should
export/import PST files.
If you simply copied files you did not install your applications. How did
you install Office on your new hard drive?

I don't think the PST file is the problem - I tried creating a new one with
the same results.

For the record, you should never export and import an entire PST file.
Just copy the PST file and reuse it.

Hello --- If I got the scenario right, have you tried exporting the
whole
PST file and re-importing again? I do this everytime i change drives,
re-configure RAID, etc. It works.

Also, the problems being faced during installation could be due to
inconsistencies on the hard drive. Execute CHKDSK /F. Experiment with
the
LIS (local installation source) utility available on the
microsoft/downloads
site.
