I have Exchange 2003 on Windows Server 2003, and problem is with only 1 user. When he opens outlook, it prompts him 6 times to enter his username/password, and then it finally takes it and he can access his email. I have reinstalled Outlook to no avail. Do you think this is an Outlook problem? (he can go to OWA and get in the first time everytime)

Thanks in advance for any suggestions,
MJ
 
I had the same problem with a user and I found that they were not added as a poweruser or admin locally on the machine. Once they were added to the machine I rebuilt their Outlook profile and everything worked fine. Not sure if this is the same situation you are having, but it sounds very similar.
 
No I haven't found a solution yet...I had already checked to make sure he was an admin on the machine, and he is, so I don't think that is the issue. I posted this in the Exchange Server 2003 forum as well, and they suggested I delete the profile on the Exchange server itself and then add it back. Haven't had a chance to try it yet, but will hopefully get to it soon. (I'm the only admin in the company, so I've had to put some other things before it)
