They'll reimburse you if they find it is their problem... Sorry. You may want to try the outlook mailing lists at www.slipstick.com first though.

The only thing that seems to 'fix' it is if I don't install SP1.

Tried deleting/recreating the profiles? It doesn't tell you what specifically is wrong, but you can get started in the right direction...

I'm getting the following message on several systems - "Unable to display the folder. Microsoft Office Outlook could not access the specified folder location. The operation failed." I've narrowed it down to being specifically linked to Office 2003 SP1, since if I uninstall O2K3 and re-install but do not apply SP1, the program works fine. The moment I install SP1, I get the above message and cannot access any public folders. I remember there used to be a similar problem with Outlook 2002, but I thought they'd fixed it. Is it back with SP1 for O2K3? Google turned up a few posts in various places reporting the same problem with SP1, but no solutions. Hoping someone here has come across this and has a solution, or even some suggestions. All these computers are running Windows XP with all current updates except SP2; the one computer that does have XP SP2 installed is showing the same behaviour with O2K3 SP1. TIA.
