Hyperlinks "look in" default location
jgenthner
0 / 1 04 Dec
I recently started a job with a new firm. I frequently send coworkers email messages containing hyperlinks to files on shared directories (on a server). When I insert a hyperlink into an email, the browse dialog box always defaults back to C:My Documents. As a result, I have to browse back to the same location on the server over and over if I’m creating links to files in the same...

How to create a rule for moving sent mails
Edge30

It is a different solution and I don't know if it works in Outlook 2007 but in 2003 there's an option to save the sent messages (responses) in the same folder where the message (responded to) is. I use it and like it. So, the rule for incoming messages is enough because it sends the incoming messages to the right folder and then when I reply the response is kept on the same folder....

I suppose it depends on what you are using as a login script processor. But the basic idea is: - At logon, copy any (text/HTM/RTF) files at %userprofile%\app data\MS\signatures - Append user-identifiable data to filename (userid, date, time, e.g.) - Copy to some central location that all users have Write permission to So you end up with (for example) jsmith112022008.081502....

I had problems with users using Outlook 2007 getting stuck in a Disconnected state, and it was linked to Cached Exchange mode. Not sure if your problem is the same thing, but try disabling the "Download shared folders" that is enabled by default when you use Cached Exchange mode.
