Fixing the Word email editor problem...

This will fix the problem if the machine is on a Domain...

Delete the user profile, and recreate it...

Back up the following to the root of C or on the network:
c:\documents and settings\UserName\My Documents
c:\documents and settings\UserName\Desktop
c:\documents and settings\UserName\Favorites
c:\documents and settings\UserName\Local Settings\App Data\Microsoft
\Outlook\*.pst files (enable hidden folders)

Then log off the PC but leave it running... Have a network Admin log
into the machine from the administrative share (\\computerName\c$)
and delete the user profile that is having the problems "c:\documents
and settings\UserName"... (this way the system files can be deleted
without giving you a hard time)

Reboot the PC, log back into it with the username that was having the
problems... dump the My Docs, Desktop, Favorites, Archive files back
to where they belong in the profile... Run Outlook, notice that the
problem is fixed...

I don't know how or why this happens, I just know that this fixes
it... I just did it for a user... Hope this helps.

To be sure not to delete and thus loose any relevant data, i'd suggest
renaming the profile instead of deleting it when you logon as administrator...
