I am cuurently upgrading from MSMail to Exchange and when I went through the Wizard to configure the mailbox, I accidently used the wrong name and it gives me the error "...You do not have permission to log on, would you like to open the default folder instead?" If I say yes, I can't get to options to reconfigure the mailbox and if I say no, Outlook closes. how do get into configure the mailbox correctly? Should I remove and then reinstall Outlook?

No need to reinstall. Just go to Control Panel->Mail->Show Profiles and add a new profile. The make sure the good profile is selected in "When starting Microsoft Outlook, use this profile:"
 
Thank you very much. You learn something new everyday. That's why I like these boards.
