Outlook 2003, I can send but not receive emails

[Clay Tait]

Upgraded from Office 2000, to Office 2003 now.

Running Outlook 2003, and I can Send, but not Receive.
Outlook Express is fine (it sends and receiveds)

I have already reinstalled Outlook 2003 two times, and I have checked my
installation of ISP - It is O.K. as well.

I Press the send receive button (and have the settings to "Show Progress")
and it sends O.K., but I get an error message regarding the receiving - as
follows:
Task 'Telus - Receiving' reported error (0x8007007E) : 'Unknown Error
0x8007007E'

Any help is appriciated.

I would try running Microsoft Update to ensure I had the latest Office
updates as a first troubleshooting step.

Hi William.

thanks for responding. Regarding update, I actually did that. - No difference.

It is funny, because I do the Email Account TEST and everything checks out
OK, and if I check the email directly on the ISP it is there (even the test).
When I have any number of emails in the ISP and I run the Send Receive for a
breif second (before I get the error message) it will show that there are -
say 4 (or how ever many emails that are at the ISP) to be received - then the
error message happens and Outlook just wont bring them over??

Anyways, I am going to try to uninstall it again and reinstall it from
scratch.

If you have any other suggestion, I would appreciate any help.

Regards
Clay Tait

My other suggestions would be from way above as well...
- recreate the account with a different delivery location (that is a
different .pst file).
- if your ISP allows for IMAP, try that instead of POP and see if that
works.

Reinstalling should be a last resort and often one that solves the problem,
yet we are not ever sure exactly how it did so.
