JSI Tip 1532. W95 Microsoft Exchange client runs very slowly when Proxy server is installed.

This W95 client makes a Winsock call, even if TCP/IP is not used on the client computer. Thus, the Proxy server requests a DNS name lookup, which may require a dial up to the internet.

On the Proxy server, in the client directory, modify the global Mspclnt.ini file by adding the following sections:

For Microsoft Exchange, add:

\[exchng32\]
Disable=1

For the Outlook client, add:

\[outlook\]
Disable=1

Optionally, for the MAPI spooler, add:

\[MAPISP32\]
Disable=1

NOTE: Refresh the Winsock Proxy Files on the client as the normal refresh interval is 6 hours.
