Is there a way to get employees mail out of mailbox?
Passwords were changed on the account on the win2000 machine but i dont believe it carries over to the machine with the exch 5.5 (a win nt4 machine).
I'm stuck because i cant login to outlook to pick up the mail. i tried to create a new user and use that account to pick up mail but no luck.
Thanks
 
Install Outlook on the Exchange Server, setup the Exchange Profile to open "Administrators" mailbox (or the user you gave Exchange Admin rights to on install*). Also, under advanced add the users to "Open these additional mailboxes". Within the folder list in outlook you should see the mailbox for that user.

If this doesn't work, or it tells you access denied when you attempt it go into Exchange Admin and change the Primary Windows NT Account to Administrator and try to open it again.

(*if you cannot figure out which account you gave Admin rights to on install you can check the properties within any of the "Microsoft Exchange" Services within the control panel, services.)
