Microsoft Outlook 2007 Tips

If you encounter this error:

"Cannot open your default e-mail folders. You must connect to Microsoft Exchange with the current profile before you can synchronize your folders with your offline folder file."

Shut down Outlook and add a "wininet" key to "HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Wine" of the bottle's registry. Then inside that key add a DWORD value "accept_invalid_certs" and set it to "1".

Instructions on adding a registry key can be found here:

For Linux

Another possible cause for this error is that Outlook cannot resolve the IP address of your email server. Try adding the IP address and local name of your exchange server to your /etc/hosts file, i.e.

123.123.123.123  email.exchange.local
