Problems opening Outlook 2003

[Guest]

YHi all, I have very recently upgraded office from 2000 to 2003, student and
teacher edition.
All but Outlook 2003 is working fine, when I open Outlook it says "Your
Microsoft Exchange Server is unavailable" - Retry, Work offline or Cancel.
I have tried choosing work offline but it then comes up with "Unable to open
your default e-mail folders. Your profile is not configured."

It then closes :-(

Any help much appreciated.
Thanks
Alex

Do you connect to an Exchange Server or are you connecting to an ISP POP3
mail server?

If you are not using Micorosoft Exchange server, then remove it from your
profile. Control Panel->Mail Icon->Show Profiles->Hightlight the Exchange
transport and select remove. Go back one step and add your Internet Mail
service. Follow the prompts.
