Outlook 2007/2003 does not connect.

Asked by Paul_Mitton in Exchange Email Server, Outlook Groupware Software, Windows Server 2008

Tags: Microsoft, Exchange, 2007, Outlook 2007/2003 does not connect

Hi

We have a brand new setup and cannot get the Office Outlook 2007 (or 2003) to connect to the Exchange server.  The Exchange server is a Windows 2008 virtual machine on a Windows 2008 Data Centre box.

 If I turn off the Windows 2008 firewall that the Exchange 2007 server is running on then we can connect.

 I think that tells me that the Exchange setup missed creating a rule in the 2008 firewall.

 Can anyone tell me what rule I need to create so that Outlook will get through the firewall to Exchange?

Thanks PaulStart Free Trial
