Vista Forums - View Single Post - Vista64 / Problems running Outlook 2008 for first time

**gizbug** · 08-06-2007

When I first load up Outlook 2007 in Vista64, I get a popup saying

"Cannot open your default e-mail folders. outlook cannot start because a data file to send and receive mail cannot be found. To add a data file, such as a personal folder file, double-click the Mail icon in Windows Control Panel."

There is no mail icon in the control panel. Any ideas how to fix this? I've uninstalled/reinstalled, same popup. When I click ok, outlook 2007 closes.
