Exchange Service amd Internet E-Mail Service on the same computer

[Jimmy Hill]

I am running Outlook 2002 connecting to a Microsoft Exchange Server 2000.
The Outlook client is configured with both the MS-Exchange service and the
Internet E-Mail service. Exchange is used for local e-mail and public folder
sharing, and Internet E-Mail is used for SMTP/POP3 internet mail. Should
these two be able to coexist. Sometimes I get system undeliverable kick
backs on internet mail and it appears that it was being processed by the
MS-Exchange transport instead of the Internet Mail service.

Thanks a lot,
JH

Internet mail service and Exchange service should always exist in their own
profiles.

the (insert latest virus name here) virus, all mail sent to my personal
account will be deleted without reading.

This should work properly, if you do have Outlook 2002. However, if you
have Outlook 2000 in Corporate/Workgroup mode (which the phrase "and
Internet E-Mail is used for SMTP/POP3 internet mail" makes me think you
might have - it would just be a "POP account" in Outlook 2002), there's no
telling which account will be used to send mail. Usually Exchange will do
so. Check in Help -> About Microsoft Outlook to see your version...
