I recently upgraded to vista business and my outlook 2002 imap connections
no longer work. the error i get is:
There may be server or network problems or your timeout interval may be too
short.

Protocol: IMAP
Server: xxx.xxx.net
Port: 143

I thought that it might be a firewall issue - but the new 'Windows Mail'
product is able to connect to my imap server.

Is this a known issue or am i overlooking a configuration?

Thanks.

Outlook 2002 has no full compatibility with Windows Vista. The issue you
described might be the result of this incompatibility.
