Re: Owa & Vista

Mark L. Ferguson

Basic mode for IE is available in several ways. The easiest is the icon in
Start/accessories/system tools/ Internet Explorer(No Add Ons)

Without a test environment for your Exchange Server setup, you are not going
to be able to find that combination off available tools that would work for
you. Your first step is going to have to be to institute some good backup
procedures.

So i cannot test it and i don't now if the Windows XP Sp2 clients will work
correctly?

But when i start IE7 in Vista Bussines without the addons en go to our OWA
site IE cannot load the folder content. He keeps saying: waiting when i click
on the mailbox in for example. What can this be?


I would like to make it possible with IE to make OWA working correctly but
do not want to loose the option to work with OWA with WindowsXP.

You will probably need detection software to direct your client email on the
server. Outlook Web Access should easily handle IE 7 on any platform. Here
is a good MVP site on OWA
