Can someone settle this....

[Garland Mac Neill]

Exchange 5.5 SP4 on NT4 SP6 Outlook XP and Outlook 2000.   My coworker and I are trying to determine how Outlook really works. We have noticed that when we are dialed up on our laptops and connected to our network via an IPSEC VPN connection (same with PPTP), when we connect to Exchange via Outlook XP there are times we get a message that it is requesting information from the server and has a status bar. Under Outlook 2000 there was no information box like that.   My argument is that under XP, it is telling you that is requesting information and this is normal operation, given that it's working on a dialup. I should clarify, that we get this box when we are trying to open email or change folders. He says this is some kind of error that needs to be resolved.   Can some one shed some light on this. If you need more information please let me know.   Garland Mac Neill Systems Administrator Solbourne [EMAIL PROTECTED]   List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm
