Outlook 2000/2003 and Exchange 5.5

[Raji Arulambalam]

Can a user use both Outlook 2000 and Outlook 2003 to access their mailbox on
Exchange 5.5 ?
i.e. can I interchange my outlook client between 2000 and 2003 to access my
mailbox on Exchange 5.5 ?
Outlook will be on different workstations.

Cheers

Raji

Yes, but rules will get messed up. Don't upgrade rules in ol2003 and only
create rules on one version of outlook.

One item of note: there's a CDO patch that you need to apply to Exchange 5.5
boxes, in order for Outlook 2003 users to be able to continue to view their
mailbox via OWA. Apparently, Outlook 2003 adds a new field/attribute to a
mailbox that the previous version of CDO for OWA can't read properly.

You'll find the patch at http://www.microsoft.com/exchange
