MS Exchange error (The name could not be resolved)

[Bad boy Warrior]

Im using Exchange 2003 and Windows Server 2003. When i try to set up a client machine with a user that has email i constantly get "The name could not be resolved. The action can not be completed".

Ive read a few MS articles and made 1 registry change which doesnt fix the problem and checked System Manager for security credentials.

Any more ideas?

I have experienced sometimes where after you create the account it does not get added to the global address list(GAL) immediately. The GAL is created at different intervals. If the user is not in the GAL, you will not be able to resolve the name when you set up the machine.

Go into the Exchange System Manager and update the GAL manually then try to set up the account.

What outlook client are you using?
