Computers & Internet - 16 August 2007

I work at a small sized company and we want to have a e-mail that would be available for all the LAN. All the incoming and sent e-mail needs to be available to everyone, so one can see what the others has sent and receive the same messages. We started using the IMAP protocol, but for each incoming e-mail every computer needs to download the same thing and for the outgoing e-mails, Outlook Express would transfer the message again, this time to the "Sent Items" folder. We need a "e-mail manager/server" software, that would download all incoming e-mail for itself and stores the outgoing e-mails, rather than on the remote e-mail server. It would be faster, since the message would be available from a local machine. We are using Outlook Express. Not sure if Microsoft Exchange would do this, but I think it's too expensive and it needs Windows Server to run. It wouldn't be suited for our company. There is such software? Any free solution? Or, a paid one, but cheaper? :) Thank you very much!

1/2 the week i'm using a cable modem and have great bandwidth, the other half of the week i'm using DSL off a public access router. I want to hang myself when it comes to making calls. My down speed is 3- 5k, and its not bad, but my up speed is what is killing my conversations. I can hear them but they have a hard time making out what I say. Is there a VOIP with better compresion or somthing along those lines?

I used to have just a normal router to share internet connection between mine and my husband's computers. Recently my husband brought home a new wireless firewall router. After a long 'playing around' with the setting, he finally got the wireless router to work, but only to realise port forwarding is blocked when using this new router and can't seem to get the settings right to allow port forwarding. Finally decided to change back to our old standard router, only to find that port forwarding is still blocked and can't get it to work the way it used to work.
We even tried and pressed the reset button on the standard router, didn't seem to work. It feels like from changing to the wireless router and back, some settings are changed without us knowing what is it.
Is there any suggestions? Anything I should be checking? Please help, coz now it's stopping me from doing things I used to be able to do, like downloading and listening to online radio stations. Thanks so much...

Our hard drive was replaced and we need to move drivers from one computer to another. Dell told me Memorex Cds cannot move drivers. What brand and type (Cd-R) (CD+R) are the best for burning drivers?

We have these damned fire walls in Iraq that b lock chat programs and I would like to know if there is any way to configure the proxy settings on programs such as GoogleTalk, AIM, Yahoo! Messenger, etc... that would allow the program to sign in. I've tried a ton of proxy sites and none have worked.

If you can give me the proxy and port number and any authentication required, if necessary (username, password) and it works then you will have 10 points guaranteed!!!

Thanks for your time!

I already have all the neccesary parts. I know they are all compatible together. It will be my first time and I am just a little unsure when dealing with something I know so little about. I have successfully put more RAM and a GeForce graphics card in before, which is about the extent of my prowess. Does anyone have a good internet resource or be willing to help me out with this? Also things like setting up a RAID (this is for gaming). Thanks so much !

I got a second hard drive. I set the jumper right (so don't tell me to check it). I format the second hard drive, set it as extended and then logical. Problem is, sometimes it shows up in "my computer" or "disk management", sometimes it doesn't. when it doesn't show up in windows, it is detected by BIOS. so how do i make it show up in windows all the time???

I got two hard drives. The cable connecting the hard drive has 2 connectors, does it matter which connector goes to the master drive and which goes to the slave drive? same question regarding the power supply. 2 connectors on the power cable, the order matters?

OK......here it goes! I download a movie and thats all fine. In order to get it to burn on my laptop. I have to transfer from my NTFS format laptop to my external HD that is FAT32. Then burn thru convertXtoDVD from the Xdrive on a DVD-R. That is also fine. The burned disc will then play on my home DVD system and not on my computer. If I switch the DVD-R to a DVD+R then the opposite happens. It works on my comp but not on my home system. I can deal with that.......but what is really gettin me is that I cant get either type of DVD to be copied thru Nero 7 U/E. It takes way to long and not neccesary to be making copies thru convertX so I cant figure this nero problem out. I can be contacted thru my profile since this might be a back and forth conversation. Thank you very much in advance for your help!
