How to Enable 'Exchange over the Internet' in Outlook 2003 E-mail Accounts Wizard
This topic helps you troubleshoot an unsuccessful RPC over HTTP connection by explaining how to enable the Exchange over the Internet area in the Outlook 2003 E-mail Accounts wizard.
When configuring an Outlook 2003 client profile using the E-mail Accounts wizard, if the Exchange over the Internet area does not appear on the Connection tab of the Microsoft Exchange Server dialog box, make sure that your client computer meets the requirements to configure RPC over HTTP. If you installed the service pack and the update package that are required, and the Exchange over the Internet area still does not appear on the Connection tab, edit the Windows registry. To edit the Windows registry, follow the steps below.
