Why do I get the message that my Microsoft Exchange Server is unavailable?

Question

When I boot my computer I get the Microsoft Exchange Server is unavailable. This has just started to show up. Do I need it? If not how do I keep the message from popping up each time i boot up?

Answer 1

The Microsoft Exchange Server applies to Microsoft Outlook. If you don't use Outlook or Outlook express for your email then you need to disable it.

1. Go to Run
2. Type msconfig
3. Click on startup
4. Find the Outlook box and UNCHECK it
5. Click ok and exit with or without restart.

If you never plan on using it then you can go to:

1. Control Panel
2. Add/Remove programs
3. Find Outlook Express
4. Delete it
