    Hello Bill-

    I do get the correct IP from a PC, it resolves to the
    mail server.
    I read one of the other posts that you suggested to
    delete the Exchange files/folders in the System ->
    Preferences. i did this and i recreated the profile and
    it connected, but then again after closing it i am unable
    to re-open it.
    Since we upgraded to Exchange 2003 from 5.5 we started to
    have these problems. Is their something at the Exchange
    level that is not correct? The other major change that
    occurred before the exchange was we upgrade to AD and we
    switched everything internal to a .local name, so mail
    servers are XXX.aviinc.local

    thanks for your response.
