I was using OE2000 as usual for last 6 years till today.
Today, Saturday, 4/09/2005, each time I clicked on the icon on the
QuickStart part of the taskbar, I got a small message box saying
"unable to find server" or words to that effect. I finally right
clicked the OE2000 icon on the QuickStart bar and selected properties.
To my surprise the shortcut tab showed the path to outlook.exe AND IN
ADDITION, THE ARGUMENT " /recycle".

I thought that was odd. So I erased the "/recycle" and rebooted the
system. Now outlook behaves normally and brings in the email, etc.
etc.

I'm sure I did not set that targetline like that.

Anybody else see "/recycle" in their Targetline? I'm running on winMe.
 
1. There is no such beast as OE 2000.

2. The /recycle switch causes Outlook to reuse the same window and is very
common.
