EULA: start outlook using an admin acct. It might work if you choose run as
admin the first time too, but I didn't test it. The EULA needs to be
accepted by an admin. You can change you acct to an admin then reset it or
create an acct with admin rights.

4000 messages on the server? I'd set the send and receive setting to at
least an hour so outlook can get them properly marked as downloaded - maybe
even disable the autocheck option. Checking for new mail before the first
pass is done will cause problems so you don't want to restart the process
before outlook is finished.
