I don't know if it will run on W2K. That is a really old product. MS doesn't support it anymore either. I'm sure it is fine for 12 people. I have run it with 60 on a PC (with a SCSI drive). My advise would be to either not mess with it at all, or put it on a separate box.

You are probably right and we probably are using Microsoft Mail. I'm afraid that I am ignorant enough to not know the difference. I was under the impression that this was some sort of version of Exchange 5.0, but I may be wrong. Any idea if this will transfer to Windows 2000 pro? If not, what do you recommend that I look at for upgrading the system? We could all go to external e-mail accounts, but I would prefer to keep our inter-office mail internal if there is a simple way to do it. Again, thanks for your help.
