If you get this working let me know. I would like to do the same. What firewall are you using?

By process of elimination, I have discovered that the forwarding the following ports works (sort of): 23-31,50,80,110,119,123,143 100-150 4500-5000 Obviously, I'd like to narrow down the 100-150 and 4500-5000. Though I can finally read and respond to email, I found that my offline folders have disappeared from my laptop (not sure if this was a coincidence or not) and attempting to re-instate the offline folders gives me the following error: >From tools/Off-line folder settings: Msg: You must configure an offline folder before you can use this folder offline. Would you like to configure an offline folder now? Response: yes Msg: The attempt to log on to the MS Exchange Server has failed. Why this happening? Remember while attempting this operation, I am already successfully connected to the Exchange server. My only guess is that I need to forward more port numbers through the firewall. I have search through the MS Knowledgebase, my Exchange server manuals, other on-line support sites, Slapstick, etc. Your help is greatly appreciated, Shawn ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---- ----------------------------------------------------- Shawn Connelly, Network Engineer.
