Hi Gary, Now you've got me confused. Microsoft Exchange Server is a special mail program which normally runs on a network server and acts like a kind of postal sorting office for e-mail in and out of your network. That's what I run here for all our office e-mail. Is your 98SE system part of a network, or does it connect to the Internet via a modem or cable connexion of its own? I take it you are not using the 98SE machine to send your list e-mail, as that appears to be coming from Outlook Express and not Outlook. George. -----Original Message----- From: guispeak@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:guispeak@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Gary Metzler Sent: 29 December 2004 13:53 To: guispeak@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [guispeak] Re: problem with outlook 2 k Hi George, The only exchange server I have is the one from windows messaging. It seems that I un-installed outlook and re-installed it (don't ask me why) this is when I started getting the error message. When I try to set up the ms-exchange server under mail in control panel I don't know what information to put in the name field. I hope this information is of some help thanks, ----- Original Message ----- From: "George Bell" <george@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <guispeak@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, December 29, 2004 7:35 AM Subject: [guispeak] Re: problem with outlook 2 k > Hi Gary, > > This might seem a dumb question, but do you have an Exchange > Server installed somewhere that you go through? > > George. > > -----Original Message----- > From: guispeak@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:guispeak@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] > On Behalf Of Gary Metzler > Sent: 29 December 2004 02:46 > To: guispeak@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: [guispeak] problem with outlook 2 k > > Hi All, > > I recently installed ofice 2 k on my windows 98 se machine. > When I bring up outlook I get an error message as follows: > The server containing the global address list is no longer > available. > I must have changed something but I can't remember what. > What information goes into the ms exchange profile?
