Default Outlook error "unable to expand the folder"

Hello, thanks for the reply. Sorry, I don't know what you mean when
you say
"get the Outlook configuration to be exported for you from server & try
to install it on
client." Can you explain?
thanks!

Hi Japhy,

In this case i reckon you should ask the admin to get the Outlook
configuration to be exported for you from server & try to install it on
client.
just try it it will work may be the earlier one is corrupted thats all the
matter may be as per my exp. so far....

Hello, here is my situation :
I have a client who was connecting to Exchange running on SBS 2003 with
Outlook 2003.
He installed Office 2002 Professonal over Office 2003 (including
overwriting Outlook 2003...he just wanted to get MS Access and only had
a 2002 cd).
He has been unable to connect to the exchange server since.

I suggested, and he did uninstall Office 2002, and reinstalled Office
2003, to no effect.

I have recreated his Outlook profile, and get an 'underlined', resolved
name for the Exchange server componenet of the profile.
When He tries to expand his Mailbox-John Smith folder in Outlook, he
gets the error :
"Unable to expand the folder. The set of folders could not be opened.
The server is not available. Contact your administrator if this
condition persists."

Any suggestions greatly appreciated!
