Outlook disconnects   
We have an instance of Outlook 2007/Vista Business that disconnects from the 
Exchange server intermittently for hours at a time.  Has anyone else 
experienced this?

Re: Outlook disconnects   
One machine?
Can you ping Exchange when it is unavailable? Are you in online or cached 
mode?
Please try to provide as many details as possible.

RE: Outlook disconnects   
Hello Brown,

Thank you for your post.

My name is Robbin Meng, and it is my pleasure to work with you on this 
issue! 

Please allow me to confirm that my understandings are correct. As I 
understand it, the issue is:

A Windows Vista computer which has Outlook 2007 installed constantly lost 
connection with Exchange server.

If I have misunderstood your concerns please feel free to let me know.

Before we go further, please allow me to clarify the current situation:

1. Is the issue only related to this Windows Vista computer or only related 
to this particular user?
Please try to use other client computers and other users account to 
determine whether it is a computer or user related issue.

2. Have you opened the firewall on the Vista computer?
If you have installed any firewall or anti-virus and anti-spam software, 
please temporarily disable all of them. Also, please temporarily disable 
Windows firewall as well.

3. Have you tried using Cache Mode instead of  Online Mode for your Outlook 
2007?
Please check if the issue persists under Outlook cached mode.

If the issue reoccurs, please test if you can resolve the IP address and 
computer name of the Exchange server from that Windows Vista client. If 
not, please check the network configuration of the Windows Vista machine.

In addition, please check the following articles:

Windows Vista may disconnect client communications that use TCP port 1723
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/946567/en-us 

Error message when you use Outlook 2007 in Windows Vista to try to connect 
to a computer that is running Exchange Server 2003: "Task reported error 
0x8004011D. The server is not available" 
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/939321/en-us 


After we perform the above steps, if we cannot resolve the issue , please 
help me collect some information for further investigation:

Information Need
==============
Please enable Outlook Logging function and then send the log file to me for 
further research. Please refer to KB300479 to enalbe it and collect the log 
file. Please compress the log file and send to me at: 
v-robmen@microsoft.com.

I hope these steps will give you some help. Also, if you have any questions 
or concerns, please do not hesitate to let me know. 

Thank you for your time and cooperation!


Best regards,

Robbin Meng(MSFT)
