Outlook 2003, Vista OS

[Jenn]

I'm just setting up my Outlook now to pull in email from my various accounts
and it's being a bear. I finally get it to connect with my AOL inbox, only
instead of true inbox titles I'm getting all my deleted mail. To make
matters worse, the deleted mail won't allow itself to be moved to the
appropriate folder. It tells me: "Can't move the items. Unable to download
item contents. You must be online to perform this operation." What the
heck? How is it I'm not online when I open up my mailbox?!

Wrong newsgroup. The newsgroup to which you posted deals mainly
with Vista's Windows Mail program. Outlook questions are better
handled in an Outlook newsgroup: microsoft.public.outlook.general .

Considering that when I first set it up it went through and tried upgrading
on me - don't know whether it succeeded or not, nor to what degree - I
disagree.

What does that have to do with whether you should ask your questions
in a newsgroup that is short of Outlook experts?
