Our network us a Heinz 57.
Made up of Windows 98, Windows 2000, and Windows XP.
We have about half the people running Outlook 98 while the other half
are running XP.
I run Outlook XP and so does the other two people running problems.
With us running ISA server on the Exchange server, this prevents us from
using OWA internally.

Thanks!

>>How does Exchange work as far as the clients are concerned?

>>Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!
