Have finally gained access to my exchange mail, but now I cannot change where
the mail is delivered. Want it to be delivered to my personal folders and
there is no drop down to change the exchange mail box to personal folders.
Help me fix this little problem.

Not possible. From the known issues list at http://officebeta.iponet.net/en-us/products/FX101517941033.aspx#16:

"Due to some data loss bugs, Exchange mail delivery to a PST file is not supported in Beta2."

I hope they are working on this issue and will have it corrected for the
final version.

A work around of this problem:
1) set the inbox of your exchange server accoutnt as the default folder.
2) Create a new personal folder with PST data file.
3) Then add the rule to forward all the email received in your exhange
server account to the new PST data file folder.
Everything looks good.:-)

Hi Wes,

I still can not connect to my exchange server.
There's always a message stating that my local network connetion does not
have default gateway ip address or else, but when using oulook 2003,
everything is ok.
Needs your advice.

Thanks.
