Outlook 2007 BCM is making me pull my hair out!
Current configuration:
- Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit
- 4 GB RAM
- Office 2007 Enterprise Edition
- BCM 2007 SP1
- Exchange-based mail store (.OST) - ~170MB in size
I have performed multiple clean installs of both the OS and BCM 2007 on two
different machines - both using Windows Vista 64 and Windows XP - same
result. When I attempt to auto-link my existing messages with contacts, one
of two things happens:
If I bring up the Manage E-mail Auto-Linking configuration dialog and
select some combination of folders and contacts, simply clicking OK
(without first clicking Search and Link...), causes a modal, control-less
dialog to appear displaying a progress bar and the message Applying
changes.... Unfortunately, the dialog never progresses and instead hangs in
perpetuity.
If I do as above but instead of clicking OK, I click Search and Link..., most of the time I
receive an "Out of memory or resources error" even though I have gobs of both
physical and virtual memory available. For what it's worth, If I manually
link messages to contacts, I encounter no problem...
If I don't use BCM functionality, Outlook works perfectly. I have run
ScanOST (no errors). I even tried using a PST version of the same mail store
- same problem.
The only thing that may be different about my particular
configuration is that even though my mail store isn't that large (relative
to others), I heavily leverage a nested folder structure. Could this be
causing BCM's linking engine to croak?
