MS Exchange does not show in OutLook 2000 3

Office 2000 standard installs ok, but when signed onto the server during account setup exchange is not offered for none local email accounts. Rather the setup menu goes straight to menu for email via internet.

Under Options a Mail Services tab or button does not appear.
If I rightclick the desk top icon & select properties it brings me to Internet Accounts dialog box with only a Mail tab. From there I can only enter new local POP3 or IMAP accounts.

start>control panel>mail icon. It's another way to get to the configuration. The mail icon will not appear until after the first time outlook is run.

Start, Help. You'll be surprised what's there. A+/MCP/MCSE/MCDBA

To make this work, I had to be Local on the computer, In the account/profile such that the account could be a member of the administrator group before the Mail Services tab appeared. Case closed successfully
