Hello.

Using Outlook 2003 with Exchange Server. When i make my POP3 account the
default email account, outlook keeps changing it back to Microsoft Exchange
Server. Not sure when and how often, but it's very annoying.

How do i set outlook to keep my POP3 account as the default ?

Thanks,
Tony
 
If the Exchange server is running on Microsoft Small Business Server 2003, users with non-Exchange accounts in the same profile as the Exchange account may see the default mail account always revert to the Exchange account, regardless of the user’s previous choice. A registry entry is available to prevent the SBS login script from changing the transport order:

Key: HKLM\Software\Microsoft\SmallBusinessServer\ClientSetup
Value Name: NoTransportOrder
Value Type: REG_DWORD
Value: 1
