• Your default mail client must be set to Microsoft Outlook.
• The Outlook client must be completely installed to the local 
drive. Network installations are not supported.
• MeetingPlace Outlook Gateway does not support “thin clients” 
(such as Citrix or Terminal Server)
• The Windows server and the Exchange Server should belong to 
the same domain unless they have a trust relationship between 
them.
• For auto-authentication, MeetingPlace Directory Services must 
be installed with the Network Credentials field populated or the 
user’s network login must match the MeetingPlace user ID. For 
more information on auto-authentication, see the MeetingPlace 
Outlook Gateway System Manager’s Guide
.
• If you are planning to use Microsoft Outlook 2000 on the 
MeetingPlace Outlook Gateway machine, you must ensure that 
CDO is loaded. CDO is not loaded by default when loading 
Office 2000. It must be manually selected as an option during 
setup.
