I have messed up really good. I am now getting the message, "the message
interface returned an unknown error. If problem persists, restart Oulook"

How I got to this state... Loaded Office 2003. Mail not work with hotmail.
Changed in and out mail box settings as recommended in online help.
Downloaded Outlook Connector for MSN. That is when the above message
started. I uninstalled the Outlook Connector for MSN right away, message
still there. I did a FIX from the CD and now, I cannot get mail to work or
the calendar. I cannot get back into the Tools/Email Connections, that
errors out too. The "mail" icon on Control Panel is dead and the buttons
will not take me to any links. My MSN hotmail still works as does Outlook
06. HOW do I fix MAIL and CALENDAR in Office 2003? I have already
re-installed to NO awail. I am sitting here totally down hearted and
frustrated. Please advise!

Are you saying that if you attempt to double click the mail applet in the
control panel, nothing happens?
(All with outlook closed)

Dear DL.

Yes .... I was searching on my computer and found the RESTORE program. I
took my computer back 1 day before the Office 2003 install.

Then I loaded Office 2003 and this time when setting up Mail, I used HTTP
for Hotmail and now all is perfect. Mail works, Calendar works and I could
not be happier.

I did not loose much, as I work full time and only worked on it at nights.
I know that God lead me to find my answer.

Thanks for responing.
