I had to reinstall W7 Ultimate. The install kept a copy of windows, called windows.old.
Since I had not backed up my Outlook/email stuff, I am frustrated. After the OS install, I installed Office 2007.
Ok. Office 2007. Fire up Outlook. I started thinking, hm, let's add the accounts up on there. When I did that, the account(s) all piled up one on top of each other. Ok, that's standard.
But on the old setup, it was setup to be (see pic). All 4 accounts were "hidden", and all the emails would come in from those accounts and land in the folders they were supposed to.
But I cannot, for the life of me, get this shit to work!
I've: Uninstalled Outlook. Reinstalled it. Copied c:\windows.old\users\me\appdata\local\microsoft\ou tlook --->> in there is a batch of .pst and such from your Outlook setup.
I copied those files to the new install: c:\windows\users\me\appdata\local\microsoft\outloo k Ok. put those in there.
Fired it up again, and the file setup was good, but since I'd not added/started email accounts, of course, email was not coming in. Once I did add an account, the account name showed up at the bottom of the list again.
GARGH.
Please, anyone with Outlook help? Check the pics?
