Outlook MAPI problem with Exchange

[Justin Chan]

Hi, everyone.

As you know outlook will not work on system with exchange installed. The way of working around is to copy files in c:\program file\Commonfile\system\msmapi\1003 to outlook folder and create a empty text file in outlook folder and rename it to outlook.exe.local.

I had use this methord on the trial version of Small Business Server 2003 std and wil works. But now on the Full pack version I get the bad commands "mapi32.dll is an invalid Extanded MAPI library" & "Mail is not install on your system"

I search all of Microsoft knowledge base and still don't have a any ideas of solving it. People out here please help and give me some idea.

As you know, Outlook is not supported on the Exchange server. Why do you
need it installed? Will an older version suffice? Outlook 2000 seems to
cause fewer problems.
