Hi,
I'm going to be setting up a lab with 20 computers, I'm using Outlook 2003, is there a way to setup a "moc" email server? I'm using XP Pro and the class is going to be over Outlook 2003 and I'd like to be able to send and receive email but I don't have an Exchange server (there's no server at all), I was just wondering if there was away around having to create 20 POP3 accounts. Thanks for your time, Craig

Build your own internal POP3 server or contact your ISP to provide the
mailboxes; http://www.windowsnetworking.com/art...3_Service.html -- Robert Sparnaaij [MVP-Outlook] Coauthor, Configuring Microsoft Outlook 2003 http://www.howto-outlook.com/ Outlook FAQ, HowTo, Downloads, Add-Ins and more ----- wrote in message ...

XP cannot act as a server this way; no. There might be some 3rd party
applications that support this but Windows XP Pro is still limited to 10 client connections at a time. -- Robert Sparnaaij [MVP-Outlook] Coauthor, Configuring Microsoft Outlook 2003 http://www.howto-outlook.com/ Outlook FAQ, HowTo, Downloads, Add-Ins and more ----- wrote in message ...

Hello Craig,
I am afraid that there is no such built-in feature in Outlook 2003 that can achieve your goal. I agree with Robert on his suggestion that you may need to build your own internal POP3 server as Outlook 2003 is only a client email program.
