MS Exchange Server

I get a lot of business emails daily so I purchased the exchange server
through my web hosting company. I have Windows Mail, which is not compatible
with the Exchange Server. My problem is that I can't forward all of the
emails in the Exchange Server to my Windows Mail. So I tried to download the
patch, KB933612. I got a message saying, "The update is not apply to your
system."

Does anyone know about this? Have I missed any other updates?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I'm afraid you have l;ost me.

A properly configured Exchange Server can be accessed by MANY different
email clients - including "Windows Mail". You may not be able to go in and
tell it to connect to it *as* an exchange server, but IMAP or POP - if
configured on the Exchange Server - would allow for this.

I think we need a better explanation of what you have actually done...

When you say, "I purchased the exchange server..." <-- what do YOU mean?

You purchased the Exchange Server application, the Windows Server OS to run
it on, the hardware and then had it setup for you someplace (just for little
ol' you?) If so - I think you should really look into GMail, my friend. heh
