Outlook 2007 on Vista Ultimate 32 bit........
I have a paid hotmail account that I have been happily using for 2 years
now. I always check it via outlook (2003 and 2007). In 2007, for about the
past 45 days, I would get intermittent dialog boxes asking me to confirm my
password.
I would, and I would select remember this password and things would
continue - until about 3 days ago. Then the dialog boxes would not go away
in Outlook 2007. It constantly asked me for my password and would not
connect to my hotmail account.
I logged in to my hotmail account via the web to make sure I was using the
right password - all worked as it should in the web interface.
I can still log on via 2003 and the web just fine.
The Hotmail team said to go to the Outlook team. But, it has been 4 days
and this bullshit email customer support is simply wasting my time. Is it
any wonder American companies are losing ground to more customer service
oriented foreign companies?
STEER CLEAR OF OFFICE 2007 AND VISTA. THERE IS VIRTUALLY NO SUPPORT, AND
THE SUPPORT THAT IS AVAILABLE WILL SAY "I DON'T KNOW" A HELL OF A LOT MORE
THAN THEY WILL FIND A SOLUTION.
VISTA WAS ANOTHER MS **** UP (Windows Me anyone?) AND YOU ARE GOING TO BE
THE ONES PAYING THE PRICE FOR IT IF YOU ADOPT IT.
