The other suggestions are better, but worst case why not an old XP box that hangs out in the server room?
Personally I hate relying on Outlook to handle e-mail routing of any kind...

Hi guys, Yes, I know this is flame bait. Assuming adequate CPU power, is there any known reason why I couldn't installed Outlook 2007 on a server? It would either be a W2k3 Server domain controller, or a W2k Server box (non-dc) running Exchange 2003 Enterprise. I'm leaning toward putting it on the former. The purpose of this is that I have a mailbox that my customer service people attach to that receives all of our orders-related emails. I'd like to have a box with guaranteed uptime available to run the Outlook client on so that it can do rule-based filing and marking of items as they come in. Downsides? Thanks for your time :) Evan ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
