OE2003 download error
I am having a problem that I am in need of help with. first, here's the
setup: Mixed OS and Outlook version environment, mostly windows 2000 pro, some XP pro boxes about 17 Outlook 2000 and 2002 machines, 5 Outlook 2003 boxes. Domain environment, four win 2000 AS servers, one NT 4.0 We are running and exchange server, but this will be shutdown due to outsourcing email to another company here's the problem. all email clients are setup with an exchange and a POP3 email account. all of the Outlook 2000 and OE 2002 boxes work perfect, our problem is with Outlook 2003. all of the clients are set to auto check for messages every 5 minutes, and it seems to work, we receive and we send messages throughout the day, and all seems well. that is, untill you manually click on send and receive, and it downloads up to 267 messages up to two weeks old! (yes we've had that exact scenario happen). to make it more complecated, all of the clients are the same version, same build (installed off the same disc even, with their seperate keys), but mine and one other never have the problem, two always have the problem, and one sometimes has it!! any ideas? |

yes, they are on the server. The company we use for email service
provides us a web interface (but works like a mail client, not actually the server) and the emails are accesible there. I'm in the process of updating to SP2, and not sure if this will solve the problem or not, the users need to use their outlook for a little while before we know for sure. and no, the setting to leave on the server is not enabled, as we receive far too many attachments a day and we would fill up our boxes three or four times a day |

They are not being POP standard compliant. -- Brian Tillman |
