Maybe it's just me... So if anybody has links to outlook items and it works (Version 0.9.25Pre-Rel18)... Please tell me !
Here it doesn't...
:)

I tested it (Outlook XP) and it works fine.
  1. Are links created ?
  2. If yes, links don't open Outlook ?
  3. Is the issue with all item types ?
In Outlook XP, creating links don't seem to work in Outlook's Todays view, but in all others

Hi Pierre, my schedule was interrupted every 5 min in the last 2 days. Tough times...
 
I just made some further test and some outlook links work. I'm going to spend some more time on it and come back.
(The problem seems to be Outlook contacts.)

I'm perplexed... Most of my Outlook contacts GUID have changed ! This is completely weird.
It's a happy ending for IQ ! :)
The problem lies with my very own Outlook and the links I created once... and used to work... :(

And here are 2 different GUID -- The first one is the old non working link, the second one opens the right contact.
 
<a href=Outlook:00000000BDDD5AA90212A2459ED7C2F071F10334241D5900>Outlook Link</a>
 
<a href=Outlook:00000000BDDD5AA90212A2459ED7C2F071F1033404E75D00>Outlook Link</a>
 
 
I'm thinking that maybe one of my syncing apps (soocial) is not updating my contacts but just replacing them... Ouch. But it's just an hypothesis at this point.

Nope. Doesn't seem to be soocial... In any case, if the problem comes back I'll try to see what happened in the mean time.

Outlook has been known to change its GUID when items are moved around.

Thanks... For  some reason, I read that but... only remembered about this GUID thing when I read it again.
 
In any case : quite annoying. I remember moving a bunch of contacts and then back again. That must be it. I'll have to remember not to do that again.
