Reconfigure for no e-mail

[Juliea]

I have Outlook 2000 installed and it is currently
configured for the "Corporate or Workgroup" option. I
would like to change this to "No E-mail", but that option
is grayed out.

How can I do this?

Thank you!

what are you using Outlook for, then?

You would first have top switch to Internet Mail Only mode, then remove all
mail accounts.

Calendaring and contacts, primarily, although I use Tasks
sometimes, too. I also like to sync it to my IPAQ. For e-
mail our office uses another program.

Thanks, Russ.

When you say "top switch" I am guessing you mean that I
should go to the reconfiguration wizard and set it up for
Internet Mail Only mode, is that right? (Sorry to be so
dumb, I have just not heard the phrase top switch
before). Then, I would remove all mail accounts, and run
the wizard again but the second time I would select
the "No E-Mail", right?

That makes sense, although I am not sure what to do about
removing all mail accounts since there are presently no
mail accounts set up in Outlook. When I first installed
Outlook, I selected the "No E-Mail" option but somehow it
got installed in the Corporate or Workgroup mode.

That was supposed to be "to switch" not top switch.
No E-mail mode is simply Internet Mail Only with no mail accounts. There is
no similar counterpart in C/W, although removing mail accounts from C/W
would accomplish something similar. What are you trying to achieve?

Simply remove any Email accounts you may have defined in Outlook and it will
not send or receive mail.

The "p" was a typo. Russ mean "to switch".
