I have a similar problem in send/receive email from my laptop but it is not
happening. I tried the HTTP but how do you set it up so that all of my aol or
yahoo email goes to Outlook 2003. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Diana

I want to be able to send/receive e-mail locally in Outlook.

In trying to setup my e-mail account with my local Outlook, I am unable to
connect to my Outlook Web Access server to check the username or connect to
the server. I have tried both http setup in Outlook and exchange server
setup via the Control PanelMail.

When trying to set it up as "http" Outlook -hangs- when connecting and
eventually comes back with the message that it is unable to connect to the
server and is going offline.

When setting it up as an Exchange account, I get an Outlook Error message
that says: "The action could not be completed. The connection to the
Miccrosoft Exchange Server is unavailable. Outlook must be online or
connected to complete this action."

Any suggestions???

Is there a definitive YES or NO with regard to using Outlook locally to
send/receive e-mail via an MS Outlook Web Access account???

Thanks!
