Further to what I wrote earlier, I can now report that in my case it was definitely caused by KB937608 - Update for Microsoft Outlook 2007. I have installed the updates one by one on the restored system and tested Outlook after each one. No problems until I came to KB937608. After installing that one I couldn't send or receive mail in Outlook and even uninstalling the update didn't fix the problem. I had to restore my harddrive image again. Now I have installed all July updates except for KB937608, and everything works fine. Though I'm afraid that this will not help Don :-( Regards, Andrea

Yes, that's what I meant by "...even uninstalling the update didn't fix the problem". I did uninstall the update and reboot (cold), but the problem remained. Maybe the uninstallation was not successful, but there was no indication that it wasn't. Andrea |
