    Outlook Exchange Server 2003 Help?
    « on: September 25, 2006, 09:36:10 AM »
    Not the biggest Outlook buff here, this is actually the first time I've ever tried to use it. Here's my situation:

    My college uses Microsoft Outlook Exchange Server 2003 to provide school email access. Here is the url: http://mail.insideranken.org  Is it possible to configure my home computer and my laptop, both running Office XP, to sync with my school email? If so, what information would I need from my admin, if any, and how would I configure it?

    Thanks in advance.

    You would need to know:

    • account name
    • password
    • POP or IMAPI server
    • In case of a POP connection: SMTP adress
    • What ports POP/SMTP or IMAPI use (Unless they use the default ports in case of a non-secured connection

    If you want to connect to the Exchange features from your home PC, I think you'll need to set up a VPN connection to your company's LAN first.
    Only able to visit the forums sporadically, sorry.
