You can install Outlook before Exchange and you probably won't have problems. There are also Knowledge Base articles that address this problem. If you're careful, you can have both.

I only sent that once - hope this one doesn't appear twice as well! One thing just occurred to me. What's the consensus on having a Mapi client installed on the Exchange server? It's the sort of thing that I could imagine might be required at some point down the line, so I'm wondering if it would be better to install it prior to installing Exchange? Presumably Outlook is the only Windows 2000 Mapi client as Windows 2000 doesn't come with the old slim line Exchange Client AFAIK? regards, Paul -- Paul Hutchings Network Administrator, MIRA Ltd.
