I am having one of our users log on to a different terminal server. On the orginal terminal server when she uses Outlook, she claims to have tons of names cached in the autocompletion. If she hits an "a" in the To field she gets a long list of names. However, the NK2 autocomplete cache file is missing from the Outlook folder. Also, in the Advanced E-Mail Options dialog box, "Suggest names while completeing" is checked. Where would these names be cached if the NK2 file is not there? Again this is on the orignal terminal server. There are only three names in the Contacts folder too, although I don't believe autocompletetion tries to match names in the contacts folder. I have migrated many other users and the NK2 file is always there to copy over the the other server. Thanks.

- 1. outlook issues
I have two XP pro machines on Small Business Server Network they will log onto the network. loginto Outlook , recive in coming e-mail but cannot send external or browse the Global contacts due to networking error message. If they are setup on Win 98 systems there is no problem. I have disabled all firewall clients. Both systems have manually configered IP address and can fully browse all other parts of the network. If all IP address are removed and the syetems resstarded all works for about 10 minutes before the errors come back. Can anyone help - 2. Distribution list received e-mail reply
Using Exchange Server 5.5 and Outlook 2002, we have set up a distriburtion list which directs e-mails to users A and B. It is required that when Reply or Forwared are invoked for a message received via the distribution list, the distribution list name and not the name of A (or B) are included as the FROM name. Can anyone please suggest how this can be achieved? As an aside, it is realised that e-mails sent directly to A (and B) will show the name A (or B) as the FROM name on replies or forwarded e-mails, which is acceptable. - 3. OWA and reply toolbar odd behaviour not sending
My setup is Exchange 2000 operating behind an ISA 2000 box, with OWA accessed via an dns alias. Have this odd behavious whereby if you click reply and then click the SEND button, just as you hit the SEND button the whole toolbar changes colour almost like a greyed out condition and then the email disappears from screen. The email is not sent and does not appear in sent items. Any ideas ???

Autocomplete definitely uses a .nk2 file...that's it. I suggest you search hidden/system folders just in case.. I also suggest you set up folder redirection for your TS users (at the very least ...if not all users) so you never have to worry about data stored on your terminal servers. Redirect Application Data, Desktop, and My Documents to your file server, via GPO.

1.Outlook 2002 Autocomplete broken - .nk2 file missing, not recreated
Hi - Dell Inspiron 4150/XP Pro/Office XP Pro. Autocomplete quit working in Outlook; multiple posts suggest renaming "profilename.nk2" to ".bak", allowing Outlook to recreate file upon next open. However, no .nk2 (or .nick) files exist on the computer (yes, I did search for hidden files), and toggling the checkboxes to turn the autocomplete feature on/off seem to have no effect - feature does not work and file is not recreated... -Suggestions?

3.NK2 File Missing (Outlook 2010)
Hi After upgrading my Outlook from 2007 to 2010 I found that NK2 file is missing. I copied the NK2 file from a backup taken before upgrade but the Autocomplete does not work (all cached info is gone). Any idea if there is change in NK2 file/format or a design change in Outlook 2010. Regards

Outlook not saving "autocomplete" information from one day to the next. I have been advised that the issue may be corrupt *.nk2 files on the system and that I should recreate the user's profile. However, none of the profiles have an "nk2" file in their \documents and settings\&username&\application data\microsoft\outlook folder so I am not confident that recreating the profile will fix the issue.
