Outlook Web Access + Vista

Kerplunk · 15 Oct 2008 at 10:21

It has come to light that Outlook Web Access only half works in Vista, you can read emails ok but you cannot compose or reply because the DHTMLED.OCX add-on does not work with Vista.

Does anyone know of a way around this? How do our remote users send/reply emails on Vista now? :confused:

Which version? OWA 2003 and OWA 2007 both work fine for me on Vista.

It's 2000. How do you upgrade it to 2003? Is it dependant on the Server?

Yep, it is. Exchange 2003 - OWA 2003, Exchange 2007 - OWA 2007. They're really good, 2007's almost like using Outlook now.

That aside - a quick google revealed there's a patch to fix it that you can call MS for:
