Greetings Chris,

Although anything could change in the future, this is the idea.

Thanks! I wonder how that will happen. It would almost seem to require a
patch to W2K.

When running WM5 on W2K, the SIP options are not displayed...and the RTC
documentation mentions that WinXP and Server 2003 (regardless of a Messenger
client) supports SIP, but conspicuously fails to mention W2K. The
implication is that W2K does not support SIP--natively, or even with WM5.

Hi Chris,

I honestly haven't tested WM5 on Win2k so I haven't seen this. However, keep in mind that
WM5 is still a beta product, and the version available (including its preliminary
documentation) was never intended to be publicly released.
