Default Unable to open your default e-mail folders

I have just updated to Outlook 2003 and am getting an error : Unable to open
your default e-mail folders. Outlook could not start because a data file to
send and recieve mail could not be found. To add a data file, such as a
personal folder file, double click the Mail icon in Windows control panel. "
I click OK and it closes Outlook. When I go to Mail in control panel it won't
give me any options to put the file in!

Default Unable to open your default e-mail folders

Hi Mark,

if you click on "Mail", go to "Datafiles", here you could add a PST file.

If this wouldn´t help, to create a complete new Outlook profile could solve
the problem.

How to create a new Outlook 2003 profile:
