Troubling view issue
Hi, I have a user (and I may possibly now have a second user with this issue as well, I just found out) that is having the following problem: When he opens Outlook (version 2003 SP3 on XP,) his Inbox view is not how he left it. He arranges it with the columns he wants in the order he wants (and the order it's been in for years and years,) and now, suddenly, whenever he opens Outlook, the folder view changes to just the following columns: Importance, Icon, Attachment, Sensitivity, From, Subject, Received, Flag. The problem is that he has never added Sensitivity as a field, but it's always there, and the sort order is by Sensitivity, which is bizarre. He wants it to stay sorted by date received, descending. Any idea what might cause this behavior? I've rebooted his machine, rebooted the Exchange box. No luck. Exchange 2003 SP2 on Windows 2003.

RE: Motorola KRZR K1 and activesync
So I thought I had it in the bag ;) The certs on the phone are in the same place and also have that 00 01 mod. Odd thing is my root cert is WAY bigger than the ones on the phone? I still get an error that's not helpful. If I try to goto the server via the web browser it tells me there is a domain name mismatch? The cert works for windows and WM5/6? My phone recognizes the cert and enumerates it. Any idea what the SSL cert requirement might be?

Problem is I am using a self signed cert. Any way around this without disabling the need for https on as? If not, what is a safe cert company to use that will surely gen a cert that works on the phone and allows many SANs as I have about 3-4 I use!

Evan, use /cleanviews after the outlook.exe and this will restore the default views for the client.

RE: Back Up Best Practices
