Windows 7 RC Resolves Hosted Exchange Issue#

Previously I blogged about an issue I first encountered with the Windows 7 M3 build (the one that was released at PDC) and my hosted Exchange provider.outlook_logo

In short when running the M3 build and the public beta I was unable to authenticate to my hosted Exchange provider using my email address and password.  Instead I had to find out the domain name and enter credentials in the format DOMAIN\username in order for outlook to connect to Exchange.  This was a bit of a pain.

The good news is that the Windows 7 Release Candidate resolves this issue and I can now authenticate with my email address as I could under Windows Vista.

I also installed the latest Windows 7 RC on my Asus EEE 1000H but still had real problems getting Outlook 2007 to connect to my hosted exchange provider.

I check the settings over and over and eventually gave up.

My work around in the end was to migrate the settings using the Windows Easy Transfer wizard. I simply selected only the Outlook 2007 settings and then imported into my Windows 7 installation and now everything works.

Interestingly as you state above authentication is just Username and not DOMAIN\Username as you would expect.

Thanks
