Default account

[R. Zegwaard]

Hi,

I'm using Outlook 2003 with a few accounts. One exchange-account and an
account for an other mailserver. I want the last account to be the
default-account for Outlook2003. When i change this setting, everything
seems to work fine. But after a while (restart etc.) the exchage-account
becomes default again.

How can i fix this problem??

Are you using SBS2003? It will change your default back to the Exchange
account, as far as I know.

The (second) account whitch i wish to use is a pop3-account.
Yes i tried the profile - but same problem.

Thanks,

We've sen this behavior before and in some cases it is indeed a bug. I'm not
sure if it's already available as an Hotfix through Product Support or that
they wait for Office 2003 SP2.
