    Outlook 97

    		 While Outlook 97 includes an Internet Mail service similar to the one for Windows Messaging, we recommend that Outlook 97 users install the Internet Mail Enhancement Patch or the Office service packs, which include the IMEP patch. IMEP adds multiple accounts, quoting, "leave on server" and other features.

    Exchange & Windows Messaging

    		 For Windows 95 OSR2 and Windows NT 4.0, look under Control Panel | Add/Remove Programs | Windows Setup; you'll find Internet Mail under the options for Windows Messaging.

    For the original Windows 95 version of Exchange, the Windows 95 Exchange client or the Windows Messaging client hidden on the Windows 98 CD, you can download the Internet Mail service. The Internet Mail service is also included in the Windows Messaging update for Windows 95.
