Category: Outlook Group: 1.0.1 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: robert (elitemrp) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Outlook.exe will not terminate when launched via mailto Initial Comment: I first ran into this problem a few months ago at work. But at the time I thought it was related to a custom program we run here. But now I noticed I can easily reproduce the problem on any computer running SpamBayes+Outlook 2003 on Windows XP. Basically, I will open Outlook via the icon to read mail. I will then close Outlook, and if I have Task Manager open, I will see that Outlook.exe closes correctly. Now if I launch a mailto: link (or use a program that launches a new mail), where the Compose Mail window opens, but not the actual outlook program, the problem occurs. If I close the compose mail window, by either clicking Send, or closing it without sending, the OUTLOOK.EXE task will not exit. If I launch Outlook again, I'll now have multiple instances of OUTLOOK.EXE in task manager. Now the multiple instances is what caused the problem with our custom software at work, but that has nothing to do with the fact that Outlook does not exit correctly when running Spambayes and having a program/mailto link open the Compose Mail window. Yes I realize there have been 2 previous tickets about OUTLOOK.EXE closing, but none came to the conclusion that it's caused by a Compose Mail window. And both are closed without a solution. I have tested this on several computers and have tried multiple things to try to fix it (such as renaming extend.dat and other files) and nothing seems to work. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=498103&aid=1103976&group_id=61702 _______________________________________________ Spambayes-bugs mailing list Spambayes-bugs@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/spambayes-bugs
