Default Working offline, but no exchange server to go online with.

Hi,
I use: Win XP SP2, Office 2003, SP 2.

I started to create an Exchange Server account but shortly after, deleted
it.
Since then, I get an "Offline" icon in the right lower corner of the

Also, when I try to use Rules and Alerts, I get the message: "You are
currently working offline. To use this command, you must go online and
connect to the Exchange Server."

I do not have Exchange Server. There is no choice to go online in File Menu
either.

Any help would be appreciated.

Create a new mail profile in Control Panel-Mail Icon-Profiles. Configure it with your mail account. Then go back and delete your Exchange profile.

Thank you for your reply.
I have several email profiles, and have already deleted the Exchange
profile. It still says "Offline" with the error message (see below)
preventing me from using Rules and Alerts."

Thanks,

Erik
