Exchange services are all up and running fine no problems there. I can access mailboxes through Outlook Web Access but when I try to connect from Outlook I can see all the mails but outlook hangs. This is not just one mail in one mailbox, it is several users on several machines. After some time outlook seems to sort itself out and works fine till it is closed and reopened. All machines can access via OWA. Any suggestions? Thanks for an help. Regards, Joe Ledwidge, Systems Manager, MPI - Metal Powders International, Main Road, Tallaght, Dublin 24.
