faxing and Windows 98
You must have *one* of those apps, not all.
You'll get much better advice in this newsgroup, to which I'm crossposting my reply: news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsof...ic.outlook.fax -- ~PA Bear Troys Girl wrote: Microsoft exchange, windows messaging and outlook 97, but they ask for a Microsoft exchange server and I don't know what to type in the box to set it all up.

Go to 'Control Panel|Mail', select "Microsoft Exchange Server" in the
"Services" window, and click the "Remove" button. Microsoft Exchange Server is an email system used by businesses for the most part and is almost NEVER used by an ISP as a general email service. If this service wasn't specifically placed there to talk to you or your husband's business email system, you have no need of it. As soon as this service is removed, you'll stop getting asked for information you don't have.
