Email client: Exchange 5.0 client or Outlook (various versions) When the user attempts to open any email, a 'new mail' form is generated. Also, when I right click on the file to 'Mark as Read', nothing happens, no matter how many times I do it, it always states 'Mark as Read'; never '...Unread'. What is the problem and how to correct it?

Well, with Outlook 2000, there is always the Detect and Repair under the Help menu.

These are the equivalent of repair, for Outlook 97/98:

Outlook closed.
Start--Run
Type: outlook.exe /regserver and hit enter.
Run Outlook.

Some more command-line switches for up to OL2K:

outlook.exe /cleanfreebusy
outlook.exe /cleanviews
outlook.exe /cleanprofile (2K and probably XP)
outlook.exe /cleanreminders

Good luck!
