YAY!

It was the group policy. The administrator fixed the policy and now I have
the option to add the Internet E-mail account.

Thank you for your help.

Does your admin use group policies to block non-exchange accts? Are you
using the option to automatically create the acct? Try setting it up
manually.

I have Vista Business and running Office 2007. We have a local Exchange
server, but my mail is not hosted on that. I have Internet mail,
SMTP/POP3.

When configuring my Outlook 2007, it seems to have detected our local
Exchange server and the option to setup an Internet E-mail account is
greyed
out. I have not found a way to bypass this "auto detection" to get my
POP3/SMTP account installed in Outlook 2007.

Does anyone have any ideas? With the old Outlook, you could install an
Internet Mail connector even though you also have Exchange. I don't want
to
use the Exchange server and my mailbox is not on there. I have to be able
to
configure the Internet E-mail option.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Chuck
