to a command that outlook express issued" I'm using a Macw/ OS9,andOutlook 5.02 Top error message 16999 by Hal Hostetler [MVP DTS » Fri, 24 http://www.verycomputer.com/4_517f42f1ed380f9c_1.htm Jan 2003 15:00:09 Here's what I've found: http://www.atlantavirtual.com/support/AV_SupportMainframe.htm?AV_Supp...
