APPLIES TO


This article was previously published under Q189228

SYMPTOMS

When you install an Outlook client from the Small Business Server (SBS) client setup, the existing Microsoft Exchange Server profile is not overwritten and updated with the new SBS Exchange Server.

CAUSE

Because user information can be lost by overwriting a current profile, the SBS Outlook client installation does not overwrite the current profile.

RESOLUTION

To work around this problem, manually change the Exchange Server and mailbox name or create a new user profile to connect to the SBS Exchange Server.

STATUS

This behavior is by design.
