Windows Search 4.0 not indexing Outlook mailboxes

June 10, 2008

Hi,

after installing Windows Search 4.0 final over the preview version, search

no longer indexes my Outlook 2003 mailboxes. Outlook does not even show up in

the search options as a location to be indexed. With preview, everything

worked fine and with the Computer Policy Editor I activated indexing delegate

mailboxes as well and was happy.

Now it drives my crazy. I already uninstalled and reinstalled but had no

luck.

Anybody experienced the same thing or has any idea on how to get Outlook

back into Search ?

Thanks & Best regards

Marc

Marc,

I am also facing the same issue, but I did not have the preview version

installed. I also do not have Outlook listed as a search area.
