Questions - Completely new to Exchange - please help

[sbayter]

HI,
I'm completely new to ExchangeServer and have never used it before. I used other mail server because EXchange did not allow me to used without active directory. Now I've installed Win 2000 server and installed the Exchange Server 2000.
In the other mail servers I've used it was pettry easy to set up users and manage account but ES seems more difficult and I have some questions that may be stupid but I have to know.
HOw do you setup new accounts?
When you have everything setup, how do check the email, via web or POP?
I understand you can do via web but do I need a software for this, or ES comes with it?
Any tutorials online or websites you can refer me to I 'd really appreciate it.
Thanks, sbayter

Hi,

You can setup new account from within Exchange administrator itself, by going to the file menu and choosing new mailbox, and you can check mail be using a suitable client. i.e. Outlook or the Exchange client.

Can you run ms exchange server 5.5 on nt server 4 and also have a windows 2000 server as your main server. If so what actions are needed for the exchange to work properly. As of right now they will not talk.
