Exchange 5.5 (latest SP and hotfixes) and Outlook 2k and 2003 Send/Receive Issue

E

Ed Gregory

I am running Exchange 5.5 Standard with latest of everything. My clients
are running either 2k or 2003, most being 2k. I have an issue with all
clients when sending receiving e-mail. Mail is no longer instantly sent or
received. Mail sent stays in the Outbox until I change folders or click on
a different e-mail message. Same way with receiving mail. People will have
Outlook open and sitting in Inbox. If they don't move around no messages
come in. But the moment they select a new folder/e-mail, etc. a slew of
messages come in.

What is the problem and how do I correct?

Thank you.

I fixed problem on Outlook 2003 by adding rule in XP firewall for
Outlook.exe in Office 2003 directory. I also did the same thing for Outlook
2000 but that didn't correct issue for Outlook 2000. What else might I look
into? Regarding your article, isn't this how it is set already?

Thanks.
