I administer our Internet Email server, but the Network admins take care of the Exchange server. I have been to a few of these computers myself to fix the problems and did these things with none of them helping. I did however notice when I ran the office update off the web and installed the latest service packs which was SP3 for Office 2000 it seemed to fix the problem on most of the clients. There were a couple exceptions that it did not fix.
I was mainly concerned to as of why this happened out of the blue all on the same day and about the same time. No one seems to have made any changes to any server what so ever. Anyhow thanks for all the help so far! -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, December 13, 2002 1:55 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [IMail Forum] No Transport Provider Actually, the error is *given* by the exchange server, so likely your Outlook 2000 clients with this problem are on an Exchange network. There are at least a dozen scenarios where something like this could "suddenly happen". For example: If the network administrators changed the connection or relay configuration of the exchange server, and the outlook client lists the exchange server as the primary delivery method. Outlook is really crappy about defaulting to lower delivery methods. Have your clients go to their menu bar, select TOOLS --> SERVICES, click on the DELIVERY tab, and ensure that the Internet E-mail delivery method is moved to the top so it is selected first. Also, it should be brought to the attention of their exchange administrator. -- Michael E. Cummins > >We have recently just been getting this error on a number of users > >internet email.
