Windows Messenger 5.0 Stopped Accepting Messages on LAN
I am having a problem with Windows Messenger 5.0 on a LAN enviroment,
Currently using a Windows XP Professional machine with Windows Messenger 5 installed and connecting to an Exchange 2000 IM environment, I can send messages to other contacts but unable to receive them. The user sending the message gets the standard message of unable to deilver. I have tried logging in on another machine and my accounts works fine, I have no IP port filtering enabled nor no Personal Firewalls installed. Regards Mark |

Windows Messenger 5.0 Stopped Accepting Messages on LAN
Greetings Mark,
I know you said that no personal firewalls were installed, but what about the built-in Internet Connection Firewall in Windows XP? What you're describing is a known problem with the ICF on and Exchange Server 2000 IM connections. To check, click Start, then click the Control Panel. If you're in category view click Network and Internet connections then click Network Connections. Right click your network/internet connection, then click Properties. Click the Advanced Tab, and verify that the Internet Connection Firewall is unchecked. ____________________________________________ Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Messenger/MSN Messenger Associate Expert http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/expertzone/ Messenger Resources - http://messenger.jonathankay.com "Mark Stanley" wrote in message om...
