Many years use OE, first time trying Outlook.... And troubles are here.

We use Firewall Client (ISA 2000, ISA 2004 - one of two channels possible to
select) for internet access. Everything works fine, including OE.

Install Outlook, setup client account and

"Task 'mail.domianname.com - Receiving' reported error (0x80042108) :
Outlook is unable to connect to your incoming (POP3) e-mail server. If you
continue to receive this message, contact your server administrator or
Internet service provider (ISP)."

And this is strange: checking mail settings from similar window from Control
Panel works fine.

Next research of problem show that if I use NAT (setup Default Gateway in
Network Settings) Outlook works. Moreover when I use Firewall Client Outlook
does not send TCP/IP requests (MS XP internal Firewall log is clear).

MS KB is clear about that. What is solution?

Sorry for question. Resolved. It's necessary to change settings for Firewall
Client in ISA Server for Outlook from Disabled=1 (default setting for some
reason (?)) to Disabled=0. MS is forever.
