You posted your question in an Outlook group for Macintosh but from your
reply to me I suspect you're referring to Outlook Express. These are not
the same nor are they similar applications.

If you're using Outlook, which requires an Exchange server to be running
in your company's network, then your administrator would be whoever
manages your email server.

If you're using Outlook Express, then my answer to you won't apply. You
may want to check out the Outlook Express newsgroup for Macs. Either
way, since your error message refers you to contact your administrator,
you may need to bring this to his attention to get your issue resolved.

Hope this helps! bill
