I have the same problem. I recently "upgraded" to Office XP. When I click
Outlook I get a screen that askes for Exchange server info (which I don't
have) and LDAP directory info before entering the Outlook Inbox page. I can't
send a new message, I get the "can't find LDAP Directory Server (81)"
message, though I can reply to message with some work. Also there is nothing
in the address book, yet plenty in contacts. How can I get my email working?
