The machines I've installed WinXP SP2 onto are now having
trouble recieving email messages from our Exchange
server. Before the messages would arrive immediately, but
now we have to maximize Outlook and click on either an old
message or another folder (ie, sent mail, outbox, etc) in
order to recieve new messages.

Anyone else having this problem?

The Windows firewall is probably blocking the UDP packets that the exchange
server sends when you have new messages. You can either disable Windows
firewall or set Outlook to poll the exchange server for new messages

Hi Roger
Yes we are experiencing the same problem, which is
causing a fair bit of constenation with our users base
