I have never seen this as a default and I have been administrating
exchange servers for a very long time. That said there are ways you
can make exchange do this. It is a performance option but to the best
of my memory it is not a user option - your exchange administrator
will have to fix it for you.
If you are the administrator please let us know what version of
exchange (2000, 2003, 2008 is fin we don't need exchange 5.5.01C or
any thing) and we can help guild you through.
BTW exchange server admin question are better asked on the Windows
Admin Group [
WAGIT@googlegroups.com]
http://groups.google.com/group/WAGIT?hl=en
It is a very low traffic group with the majority of traffic (once or
twice a month) from one girl who uses it to promote her windows admin
blog. But we do have a few dozen linux centric windows admin over
there and it keep people from screening how this is a linux group ;).
