Hello Group,

I've recently been given the responsibility of finishing an Exchange
2003 Server installation, and I'm having a couple issues that I need
assistance with to complete this choir.

What I'm trying to accomplish:

* 5-client workstations each with an e-mail account.
* Clients require access through Outlook 2003 (PST) and Web mail
(External and Internal).
* Clients don't require access to e-mail using Exchange mailboxes.

Problems:

* 1-client is using Exchange mailboxes, and this client has established
several folders and e-mails in this Exchange mailbox.
* All e-mails from 1-client (Exchange mailbox) are sent to other
4-clients Exchange mailboxes and not 4-clients POP3 accounts.
* All NEW users created are unable to login to web mail and receive an
internal 500 http error when logging in through local web mail.

--
I'd like to be able to remove 1-client's Exchange mailbox w/o removing
any e-mails. Maybe I could copy these e-mails to his PST file?
Also, I noticed that all 5-clients have 3 email accounts (X400, smtp,
and SMTP).

Any help would be great.

Regards,

John Plane Jr.

If I understand your post correctly, you want to host your users mail in PST
files and not Exchange Server? In that case, why use Exchange 2003 at all?
You will have no access to users mail through OWA, OMA, etc. You really
need to review your setup and rethink your path for Exchange 2003. Seems
you already made and investement in Exchange 2003 now you need to setup both
the Server and Clients to take advantage of it.

Why not Exchange mailboxes.

If you use POP, you lose the ability to see those e-mails through OWA.

Yes, I also believe that utilizing the Exchange mailboxes will be
the best plan of action. I'm probably going to convert all users to
use Exchange, rather than, having the users use PST files.

I'm still unable to login with users that I create in the OU
"MyBusiness." I guess this is the default OU that SBS2003 creates when
you setup Exchange 2003? The newly created users are unable to
successfully login to OWA, and receive an error in IE "Internal Error
500."

Thank You,

John Plane Jr.

Try logging into OWA from the SBS Server itself. In the address bar type
http://yourSBServername/exchange. What happens? Check IIS Manager to insure
your Default Website is running.
