Michael: This was an instance where I said to the men in charge to be careful what they are asking for because it will happen. Nobody is happy with the exchange server because we can't buy Outlook 2007 for all in the company. Way too much money - to the tune of $12,000. The consultants say that no other client will work. So ok we do have Outlook Web Access (OWA) which is ok for its limitations. But some need to access their email offline so the web solution doesn't work for them. So these folks are getting Outlook 2007. Also, all the email address have changed because there was no way to implement the change in the world simultaneously (AKA scouts) so 2 mail servers are still running. But not for long. All of my VFP apps communicate system critical info back to me via email when the user connects to the Internet or to the servers. The amount of time I have spent trying to re-invent this wheel is staggering. This wasn't broken but it still needed to be fixed. I could go on but it is moot... Thanks for all your ideas. I am hoping to get this resolved using CDO through the consults (can't wait to see the bill on this for something that should have been configured correctly in the first place). If you are not familiar with CDO messaging check out: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms526453.aspx It is actually very slick and works when it doesn't need to talk to a MS Exchange 2007 Server!

I can't stand when things go backwards for no reason. I worked for a company who hosted their exchange server in their office. The office building was always losing power, so if the power went off, the server went down, and nobody in the whole friggin company got email. If the power went off on a Friday night, nobody had email until Monday morning. I begged and pleaded with them to go to an outside pop3 server since nobody was using exchange for anything other than email and we could get 50 users for $20 bucks a month, get 24/7 uptime, automatic backups, and webmail from anywhere in the world. Nope, they knew best. _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
