Basic Exchange 2003 Setup

[Guest]

I have installed Exchange Server 2003, on my Server 2000 machine (service
packs OK). I wish to use Exchange to share calendars and address books in
outlook 2007. I need no email function with exchange. I will keep using my
POP server. The Exchange installation went well (as far as I can tell). All
the exchange services are running on the server. I can not see the Exchange
server shares on my workstations.
1) Is there some type of permission or share setting to allow the
workstations to see the public folders?
2) Is there some client installation necessary on the XP workstations?
3) How do I actually connect to the Exchange server from a workstation? I
tried to go to control panel-->mail and add a new Exchange Server account. It
could not find one. I am missing something basic here. Would someone please
help me? Thanks.

Each Outlook client needs a mail profile connecting to an Exchange mailbox. Did you create a mailbox for each user?

Once you have the mail profile configured properly, start Outlook and look in the Folder List navigation pane on the Outlook clients. That's where the Public Folders hierarchy will be visible.

FYI, if you need help with Exchange tasks like creating mailboxes, visit the microsoft.public.exchange.admin group.
