I'm not sure if you want a tool to fetch the hotmail accounts to the local accounts created on the SBS server. If yes, then look at this post as I think it may help. http://mm.ilug-bom.org.in/pipermail/linuxers/Week-of-Mon-20010730/001406.html The strange this is that I searched for this article using Google. ;-) If you're asking about how to configure the Outlook Express clients to directly access their hotmail accounts, then you need to enable IP forwarding / NAT using iptables.... Currectly the SBS server only enables a Squid Proxy server for users to use their browsers to surf the net... So they could use IE or Netscape on the PC to check their hotmail account. Hope I was able to help. Regards Rishi -- http://mm.ilug-bom.org.in/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
