A likely cause...One other thing I just thought of:<br /><br />A likely cause of your login errors is that unless the system is <b><i>EXACTLY IDENTICAL</i></b> (<i>i.e.</i> a bare metal backup), transferring logins from one system to another won't work. The reason is that if you create a fresh user on the target system, you may not get the same internal user ID on the second system. (Ask me how I found this out. I dare you! Just ask me.)<br /><br />Even if you are using the domain/Active Directory to create the user on the new machine, you may be running into issues where the new machine's internal user ID doesn't match either. It is very likely that you'll have to either read up on Exchange Mail, or find someone who is more expert than I am.<br /><br />Good luck and let us know what happens!<br /><br />Jim (JR)<br />Jim "JR"https://www.blogger.com/profile/01053267015652256718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8386999095134482598.post-86022022760468700732015-12-24T19:10:25.317-05:002015-12-24T19:10:25.317-05:00Kirk,
Thanks for the excellent post!
This questi...Kirk,<br /><br />Thanks for the excellent post!<br /><br />This question points up an important assumption I made, but did not document, that the e-mail is stored <b><i>on the local system</i></b> and not an Exchange Server within a domain. As a result I have updated the "caveat's" section of the article - right up top!<br /><br />Because I am using my copy of Outlook as a generic POP-SMTP mail client - and not part of a corporate/domain mail server - the correct answer to your question is "I honestly don't know".<br /><br />The only suggestion I can offer is to go try it - AFTER backing up the affected parts of the Registry! It might, or it might not work. Whatever happens, if you DO give it a try be sure to come back here and post your results. It will be an invaluable addition to this article and useful to others that may come and read it.<br /><br />Good Luck and thanks again for an excellent post!<br /><br />Jim (JR)<br />Jim "JR"https://www.blogger.com/profile/01053267015652256718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8386999095134482598.post-17571853062572988782015-12-19T02:12:27.679-05:002015-12-19T02:12:27.679-05:00I have outlook setup on a pc that is part of a dom...I have outlook setup on a pc that is part of a domain and uses exchange for email. I am trying to set the same account up on a pc that is not joined to the domain and I have been battling multiple login errors.
