MS Office Forum / Outlook / New Users / January 2007Upgrading from Outlook Express to Outlook.
I am switching from Express to Outlook. I transfered everything and re-entered the account info. I made Outlook the default email program. However, I get emails to my old Express program instead of Outlook. How do I fix. > I am switching from Express to Outlook. I transfered everything and > re-entered the account info.

You're doing this yourself, actually, when you open OE and have it check for mail. It doesn't know or care that you have the same account set up in any other mail program...how could it? Remove this mail account from OE if you're still going to use OE for other accounts....if you're going to use OE only for newsgroups, you can add /outnews or /newsonly to the end of the shortcut path to OE. > I am switching from Express to Outlook.

Don't run Outlook Express and it can't collect the mail. ALternatively, delete the mail account in OE or uncheck the option to include the account in send/receive.  SignatureBrian Tillman I am upgrading from Outlook Express to Outlook, also. When I press Send/Receive, Outlook brings in over 12,000 emails beginning in April 2005 with only 1 in 2007. After I cancel, I can go into Outlook Express and get current emails. How can I prevent the old emails 2005-2006 from coming into Outlook and receive only current email? > > I am switching from Express to Outlook.

In the mail server, using a web interface, move the messages you don't want Outlook to download to a folder other than the server Inbox. SignatureBrian Tillman |
