I am having some strange issues arise with Outlook 2000 (Internet only). I have machines running w2k pro, and are connected to a w2k server. After the user logs in, Outlook is unable to connect to the POP3 mail server (hosted off site). However, if after I log in, I open up the web-browser (Firefox) first, then I open Outlook and I connect fine. After logging out and back in though, the issue still remains, and I have to connect to the internet first again to connect to the hosted mail server.
I know that it isn't an issue with the hosted mail server, because the machines that are on the old Novell server connect fine.
The machines have just been reformatted and W2K was just installed. All the software is up to date with the latest Windows updates. There is nothing on the machines as far as software besides the OS, Office 2000, and Antivirus.
The machines are running Symantec Corporate Edition 10, but when I disable the antivirus the problem remains.
Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated....
