OL 2003 and Exchange 2003 combined have a feature set called RPC/HTTP. You are looking to set that up to get what you are after. As I recall, at least one DC has to be at Windows 2003 as well as your Exchange server also has to be at that version plus Exchange 2003. Read up on it in any case to get the latest details and deployment information. Al -----Original Message----- From: A.

All clients are connected over the Internet, i.e. no local LAN connections, no netbios traffic. As a user, I am able to create and successfully use a POP3 or an IMAP account on the server, but I am unable to create a "Microsoft Exchange Server" account (e.g. via the "Mail" icon in the control panel). Are "Microsoft Exchange Server" accounts only available to Outlook via a local LAN connection, or is there a way to establish these accounts over the Internet, and if so, what might I be missing or need to check? I have tried Outlook 2000, XP and 2003, same deal - unable to create "Microsoft Exchange Server" accounts. TIA!
