When i try to move an email message from my inbox to my calendar, Outlook
saves it as an attachment as an envelope. When I try to open the attachment
in the calendar, nothing happens. This same issue happens when someone
forwards me an email and the email is stored as an attachment in an envelope.
I cant open the envelope attachment.

I'm using Vista (Home Premium) for the first time and this was never an
issue before in XP. This is a rather big problem because I rely heavily on
moving emails to calendar that require follow up. But once I move them to the
calender, I cant open them! (and like i said, this was not an issue in XP).

are you using Google desktop? uninstall it. if you are using the beta build,
go back to an older version.
