Default Outlook 2003: Will Not Open

Out of no-whe Today Outlook decided to not open. Here is the error
message: "Can not start microsoft outlook. Unable to open outlook window. The
set of folders cold not be opened. The server is not available. Contact your
administrator if this condition persists". There is no problem with the
server, I checked. I have no "Administrator" My kid is only 11 so it will be
another year or 2 before he earns that title. What now? Any suggestions would
be appreciated.
(For the rest of my life, anytime I encounter any problem with another person
I am going to tell them to contact their Administrator: Can't lose weight?
You Should Contact Your Administrator. Bad skin? Contact your administrator.
Stuck in traffic? Administrator. This is the answer to all problems. Just ask
Bill.)

Default Outlook 2003: Will Not Open

What type of email account do you have configured in outlook? That error is
something you might get with an exchange server account but it doesn't sound
like you are using Exchange.

go to control panel, mail and check your profile - or make a new one with
the correct account type.

So how do YOU know the mail server to which Outlook connects is
actually "up"? How do you know it is reachable?

I have no "Administrator" My kid is only 11 so it will be another year
or 2 before he earns that title. What now? Any suggestions would be

Oh, you are actually running your own mail server? The message is
telling you to contact the admin of the mail server. So what did they
say when you tried calling your e-mail provider, using their chat,
e-mailing them, or whatever form of contact they provide to ask about
their outage?

Oh, you need spamify your posts by advertising your newsreader? Expect
to be treated like a spammer if you behave like one.
