That's the step in between Outlook 2000 just dying when it loses the Exchange server and Outlook 2003 which just pops a little tiny not in the corner to tell you Exchange has gone and carrying on. If you get a busy network then you may get this message and this will happen if you have a big message coming down. There are a few other causes but they're rarely vital. ________________________________ From: Suresh Swamy [mailto:sn@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: 10 July 2003 11:11 To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] Requesting Data from E2k server Importance: High http://www.MSExchange.org/ Dear all, I am getting very often this message at MS outlook 2002 "Requesting data from Exchange server" , Can any one please help me to solve this ?
