Vista64 / Problems running Outlook 2008 for first time

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.

That sounds pretty nasty. Can't really think of anything other than trying
to reinstall Office by running the installer as Administrator.
