Default Outlook 2003 crippled after install and uninstall of Office 20

I just wanted to comment, now that I have this working, about the arrogance
that Ms. MVP wrote.
Our company has now acknowledged that Office 2007 is garbarge and are now
rolling all machines back to 2003 and any new ones will continue to get
Office 2003. This company has over 400,000 employees and could not work these
issues out with MS. So the big dogs finally made a good decision and told MS
to go pound sand with this new Office 2007.
For an MVP to say what you said just because your are certified by the
company that wrote the garbarge is just wrong.
I have to say I will never come back to these forums again. Waste of time!

Honestly, you deserve their anger for changing versions on your own - you
probably crapped up the mapi dll. Rename it .old and run fixmapi.

What DL limitation is there in Outlook 2007?

(Big companies aren't the problem, the employees are. )

Forgot to tell the error message. This is what I get:
The messaging interface has returned an unknown error. If the problem
persists, restart Outlook.

Hello,
I hope somebody can help here and it would certainly be appriciated.
My company just provided me with a new Laptop and it came with Office
2007.
Well the GUI not to mention the distro list limitations in Outlook 2007
have
forced me to go back to Outlook 2003. At first i tried to just remove
Outlook
2007 and then install Outlook 2003. The global distro list is gone, I can
not
reply to ALL nor can I launch an email from a web page that invokes
Outlook.
I then removed the entire 2007 suite and installed the entire 2003 suite.
Same problems exist.
Outlook 2003 still has no global address book nor can I reply to all or
invoke from a web page.
Does anybody have any ideas of how to get my Outlook 2003 to be normal
again?

Again, any help would be appriciated and thanks in advance.
