It looks like I'll have to install Office 2003 to access my exchange mail
account - is this correct?

Yeh, and also if the server is configured, you can use the Exchange Web
Access as well :blush:)

Well, Exchange and Office Outlook 2003 are like bread and butter, but
Windows Mail and Outlook Express supports Active Directory, so you should be
able to receive e-mail through Windows Mail from an Exchange server. When
you moving to different categories now such as Share Calendars and Global
Contacts, Exchange would be most appropriate. Also, you are in Pocket PC's
which noted in your signature, so Outlook would be the best way to go when
sychronizing data between your mobile device and you PC.

Cheers Zack / Andre, that is what I thought too with reference to Outlook,
for some reason though no matter what I do the damned thing will not
connect to the Exchange server no ideas why it just wont.

So for the moment at least I must use MCE2005 for mail. Plus each time I
try and post to the newsgroup using Windows Mail I get port 80 warning
errors.

Something which I find great to use - if you have reoccuring popups for some
reason and you can't find out the problem or a work around... sometimes when
you're synching newsgroups and it comes up that box saying "Cancel" or
"Wait", I use something called "PTFB - Push the Freakin' Button" which lets
you configure the computer to click buttons for you ;o) It's great - now I
can sync all my NG's and set PTFB going, and go to bed and know it'll be
done in the morning.

Tekguru! You get the Port 80 error too? Yes! I thought I was the only one
:-D I bugged it and got a response, I will send a sample e-mail and a copy
of the Help Newsgroup logs to the Team Monday when I go to work. :) Will
respond soon, take care!

Nope not just you, they are annoying me that much I'm now accessing news
under MCE2005.

Might be related to the Communities Feature. Try disabling it in
Tools/Options/General. Did you make any changes to the default firewall
settings or have a third-party firewall software installed?

Thanks Ronald, here is a test with that feature turned off - finges crossed!

Ooops! ;-)
And there was no error with that post so it may have worked!

Ok, so we need to investigate why you are getting this error. Port 80
is the default HTTP port and usually should be open. Did you change
the settings of the Vista firewall regarding the blocking of outgoing
traffic? Or are you running a third-party firewall (including Onecare)
that blocks outgoing traffic? If so, make sure Windows Mail has full
access and see if that solves it.

Nothing changed at all, and OneCare will not install under Vista for me,
the web says only XP is supported.

Have no clue, then. Maybe you could check with Andre here what common
programs you both have running or other identical system configurations.

It might, we'll see what feedback Andre gets first.
