Yeah. Most of our people are on at least OL2k3, but there are a handful still on OL2000. :-(

OL2k is a finicky POP3 client, in my experience. If you want/need to stick with Outlook, that's fine, but if you're willing to look at other clients, Thunderbird and either Lightning or Sunbird (all from http://mozilla.com) might work for you.
