Exchange Server 2007 Service Pack 1–based server that is running Windows Server
2008, you are prompted for your credentials three times. Additionally, you may
receive the following error message: The connection to Microsoft
Exchange is unavailable. Microsoft Outlook must be online or connected to
complete this action. CAUSEWindows Server 2008 prefers to use IPv6 protocol instead of
the IPv4 protocol. The Exchange 2007 server does not listen to some specific
ports on IPv6 that are used for Outlook Anywhere. Therefore, this problem occurs. RESOLUTIONTo resolve this problem, download Update Rollup 4 for Exchange Server 2007 Service Pack 1. Then, install the update on the Exchange server.
