How to reply email on Microsoft Outlook Web Access?
hi
I really need IT Support in this area.
I often check my mail on Microsoft Outlook Web Access from home, on weekends, PH, while I am on leave or on course. While the emails can be read on both XP and Vista, they cannot be replied nor forwarded on Vista. Recently, I have a new desktop and a notebook that allow me to work from home while on leave and during weekends. They are both running on Vista and I can’t find XP anywhere in the market. The mail server not supporting Vista does pose a problem to my work and this will mean that I will have to come back to office to reply to emails when I am on leave, MC or even on course.
Whenever I click reply or forward on the webmail, I will see this screen...

microsoft has already identified this problem.
basically in order for it to work on vista, your system administrator has to install a patch to the mail server.
but i'm not sure if there are any other ways.

My IT support today replied me with this email ... sigh (note: I already told them that I cannot find XP to install):We are in the midst of finding a workaround solution. We hope to solve this problem permanently in next 3 to 6 months.
Please note that we do not support Windows Vista currently, as there are many incompatibility issues and other related problems. It requires certain amount of resources to test and ensure that our mail server continue to function as per normal after upgrading our system to support Vista. We cannot afford the downtime, affecting everyone just because of Vista. Win XP is the only client software that we support currently. Please understand that apart from the standard official software used in our company, any other software is not our priority.
Suggest you can downgrade your current Vista to XP to access your mail. Alternatively, find another win XP machine. For your kind understanding, please. Tks.

where did your new desktop and laptop come from?if company got the hardware from vendor...confirm can get the vendor to downgrade to XP for U.
if personal...then either U buy the OEM XP legally or do by the illegal ways...
shucks....I have to migrate to Vista very soon for work....scary.
