I hope you aren't actually running Outlook *on* your SBS box (or any

Exchange server), and that you mean a client computer connected to Exchange.

 

Please repost (with a *lot* more detail) in

microsoft.public.windows.server.sbs.

Yes Lawrence, I Am Using OL on our SBS For About two (3) years now with no

real problems. This situation I am having only just started. We are a small

firm and do not use Exchange. I never really used a DL in mass mailing and

usually send multiple emails as independent addresses and this would work

fine...Was thinking it might be from an automatic OS and/or OL update? jjb

Well, along those lines, I've never had a bike accident, but I still wear a

helmet. If you don't have Exchange *installed* at all, fine....but here's

the KB article

 

"Microsoft does not support installing Exchange server components and

Outlook on the same computer"

I'd suggest you investigate changing over - you will likely be amazed at the

improvement. Try posting in microsoft.public.windows.server.sbs for more

assistance with Exchange on SBS. I wouldn't dream of installing a server

without it, honestly.

Not that I know of, but you'd probably best post this in

microsoft.public.outlook as this isn't a server-side issue.

 

NB: Your SBS server should really not be used as a workstation - no

workstation apps should be loaded on it, and no users should be able to log

into it. This goes for any server besides a Terminal Services box. Sorry for

schoolmarm mode, but this is important.
