You would think so wouldn't you? Perhaps the patch is only needed if you
have been cursed with an exchange server?

I'm laughing, this coupled with Vista has a good chance of being the
trigger that starts the mass migration away from MS products.

Imagine a vendor charging $4000 for a patch like this for W2K, a patch that
is so simple that others have written and made it available for free.
