Outlook 2003-server: settings time-out and number of connections

[harry]

Dear,

can someone explain the effects of changing the standard settings of 32
connections to 64. Also there seems to be a link with the high number of
connections that is standard from the client to the server: it looks like for
every server/mailbox there are 2 connections opened. This implements that
only 16 people can connect to the mailbox!

Another issue is is the time-out time.
What is the effect when bringing this down from 2 hrs. to 5 minutes?
We work with multiple mailboxes attached to a general/functional account.
If someone sees that a new mail arrives at the sign (1) the mailbox is
opened, but what happens if the time-out time is active, do you still see
that change of number from incomming mail?


Thanks,

There is no Outlook 2003 server that I'm aware of. Are you, by chance,
referring to Exchange Server 2003?
