WINS?  We don't need no stinkin WINS!

Hmmm... Odd, though.  I don't have an option in my ESM to create a
mailbox.  No Exchange Tasks, either....

WIN2K SP1(navtive mode) and E2K (native mode)

I know I have seen this in writing but am unable to locate it.  For the
ESM to function properly from a workstation, does that workstation have
to point to a WINS server?  From my experience, ESM will work when
pointing to a WINS server and may or may not work if not.

We are having a problem when trying to create mailbox enabled users, the
option to create the mailbox does not appear.  Even after the user is
created and you go to the exchange task, the only option is to enable
instant messaging, rendering the account unusable as far as mail is
concerned.

I know that WINS is not necessary in native mode, but I sure do remember
reading that the ESM requires it.

Others have told me that we might have a network browsing issue etc....

If anyone knows of any such literature about this please point me to it
or any guidance to make it work without WINS would be great too.  Thanks
all!
