I trying to trouble shoot some send issue with pop3 accounts in OL2003, and have turned on logging

However I am not able to find the logfiles I believe it is creating now.

- I did some searches in help and on tech net but have not found any reference to the location of the log files
if this is documented please feel free to let me know wher

thank you

Logging should be going here;
C:\Documents and Settings\%username%\Local Settings\Temp\Outlook
Logging\ProfileName

Thank you !!! that hint got me in the right directio

C:\Documents and Settings\%username%\Local Settings\Temp\OPMLog.log was the real locatio

also found a log directory \outlook logging\ there but that only contained a fist run lo
C:\Documents and Settings\Bart\Local Settings\Temp\outlook logging\firstrun.lo

This is probably a minor bug I am sure Microsoft intends to write all its logs there.. Hope they will document this in a future office update

Thanks again for your help
