I installed Outlook 2003 on my home machine, and tried to import the setup
from my Office machine, which is configured to go to an Exchange server. I
can't access this server from home, so I only want to set up for POP3 access.
Starting Outlook at home, it looks for the Exchange Server and won't proceed
unless it gets one. It closes when I cancel the request for an Exchange
Server ID, so I can't work on deleting that email account and setting up what
I need. How can I force the Configuration Wizard to start up when I start
Outlook at home, or get rid of the current specification? I'm comfortable
with Registry updating.

Forcing The Configuration Wizard to Start
 

'Control Panel|Mail|Show Profiles', click the existing profile shown, and
click the "Remove" button. Next, click the "Add" button, give the new
profile a name, click OK, click "Next" to add a new email account, and DO
NOT select Microsoft Exchange Server, select the CORRECT type account and
proceed through the rest of the wizard.
