Changing from Corporate to Internet mode in Outlook 2000

[Steven]

Hi there,

I set up my Outlook in corporate mode, but want to change it to Internet.

Is there any issues (data loss) in changing from one to the other???

It's mainly so I can have multiple send addresses.

Cheers

Steven

There shouldn't be any data loss. There are a lot of differences in features
and capability that you should take into consideration, however. For
information on choosing a support version or changing to the other support
version, look here:

Just a word of warning. After I tried this in Outlook 97, the program
refused to start and I still can't get it to work despite having uninstalled
and reinstalled it several times.

Of course. Outlook 97 only had one mode. There was never an option for IMO
mode in Outlook 97.

I set up my Outlook in corporate mode, but want to change it to
Internet.

Since Corporate Mode will do whatever Internet Only Mode can do (with two
exceptions: no IMAP and no integration with Windows Address Book), why
change back?

He already told you: So he can select the sending account on the fly.
Also, for users who needed only simple Internet transports, Corp/Workgroup
was a dinosaur. Who wants to consume their entire system resources and stare
endlessly and the "Sending and Receiving" dialog every single time they poll
for mail?
