If you're running a wizard from within Exchange System Manager, don't - it
is not required and won't work. You want Server Management, on the Start
button. Complete the items on the ToDo list, in the order that they are
presented.

When you get to the 'connect to the internet' wizard (Configure E-Mail and
Internet Connection Wizard), your exchange server will be configured by
successful completion of the wizard.
