SYMPTOMS
When you attempt to add a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) directory in Microsoft Outlook, the following message may appear even though you are not adding an e-mail account:

The E-mail Account you have just added will not start until you choose Exit from the File menu, and then restart Microsoft Outlook.



CAUSE
This behavior occurs because Outlook erroneously reports the new account as an e-mail account. The LDAP account is created normally.



WORKAROUND
To work around this behavior, click OK in the dialog box, and then quit and restart Outlook.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed in the &quot;Applies to&quot; section.
