Default Acounts - Services Question

Under OE 6, when I open Tools/Accounts/All, I see my mail server plus 3 news
servers. I recognize them all. However there is also another entry named
Active Directory. Would someone please explain what this is?

Thank you.

Active Directory is an inventory of users, and many other things besides,
which you would find in a network domain environment. Is your machine
in a domain environment? If not, best just ignore it. If yes, chances
are that it is not working properly, because not every network admin
uses it for the purpose of storing user information there, especially
email addresses. HTH

Gracias, Roland

No domain here. Just a simple home network of 3 computers via a DSL/Router.
As you suggest, I will ignore it.
