Hi
I actually was just trying to show the Idea...
This is the Full Link (Hope you have a Personal Folder set up, Otherwise you
have to spesify the user's account....)
Note that it does NOT like spaces.....

For Your Inbox: <p><a
href="Outlook:\\Personal%2520Folders\Inbox">Inbox</a></p>
For Your Calander: <p><a
href="Outlook:\\Personal%2520Folders\Calendar">Calendar</a></p>
ETC.
I think this is IE4+ and Outlook Specific. To be used for something like an
Intranet only...

I was wondering how to do it in Outlook (not Outlook Express). Since you
obviously have experience shelling Outlook, could you tell me how? I tried
opening the link: outlook://inbox, but I get the error: "Unable to display
the selected folder or item. Could not complete the operation. One or more
parameter values are not valid."

Thanks,
Brennon
