problems with 'My Inbox' on MySite

Hi,
I'm having problems browsing to the second page of the top level web part
gallery (unexpected error, with link to Web Parts Maintenance Page) and
getting My Inbox to work on MySite. I can drag it into a zone, but can't
configure it to work with our mail server, nothing happens when I click
apply! The same problem goes for My Calendar and Tasks webparts.

I don't get this problem however anywhere else on the portal! The top level
is fine, (MyInbox functions properly there) as are other sites web part
galleries.

Has anybody come across this before, it definitely seems to be MySite
specific, and I wonder if maybe deleting and recreating the MySite template
that could fix this??
Thanks for your help,
Simon

HI Simon,
Have you checked your exchange server settings and proper Inbox name,
sometimes, exchange server does not work by name, so you can try IP
address as well.

Hi,
Found out what the problem was. The MySite page default.aspx had been edited
previously and when I went back to the original default.aspx page before it
had been edited, the webparts functioned as expected.
