XP Home SP 2 and Web based Outlook

[Bob]

I used to be able to flawlessly remotely access Outlook
remotely using IE and SP1. However, once I installed SP2,
I can longer reply to any messages.

My INBOX appears correctly and I can view messages, but
once I hit the REPLY icon, the message I was viewing
disappears and I am returned to my INBOX rather than
being able to compose a message. I upgraded to SP2 on two
different computers and the same problems exists on both
machines.

SP2 for Windows XP includes a built-in popup stopper for Internet Explorer.
Open Internet Explorer and select Tools | Internet Options | Privacy tab.
Select the bottom button ("settings") and add the domain of the OWA server
you need to connect to.

For example, if I was connecting to https://webmail.mvps.org, then I would
add webmail.mvps.org or *.mvps.org if I wanted all resources under this
domain to be able to create popup style dialogs.
