Why are you not able to use the internet for this? They will still get it...

You could also use paper memos.

(PS - I would suggest moving off Outlook Express as it's a HUGE security hole)

You can still set up an email server and tell your client to use that.

Depending on your OS, you can enable messaging, but that's not guaranteed to stay on the screen and won't last through a reboot, etc...

Hello,

To send local network mail there is no need any internet connection, you can just start SMTP and POP3/IMAP servers in any one of your machine, which is inside your network. And the configure you outlook Exp thats all you need. Note can not forward any mails to outside world.

If you tell the OS, which one your using, i could able to help you to configure SMTP and POP3/IMAP.

Regards,
Arul

Hi,

I indeed sorry to say that i never worked windows server, mostly i use to work on unix, linux, etc..., off course windows is not good for any severs.
i don’t know by default POP3 server is coming with windows are not..., better you can check services from windows control panel....

Just i found there is a free POP3 server : http://www.download3k.com/Business-Finance/Other/.ownload-TM-POP3-Server.html
it is working fine for me...


telnet localhost 110
+OK TMSOFT POP3 Server v2.13a ready <2192>
user arul
+OK Send password for user arul
pass arul123
+OK arul's maildrop has 0 messages (0 octets)
list
+OK 0 messages (0 octets)
.
quit

Note: Don't use thess kind of free server to any of your business. Better go for sendmail and fetchmail from Linux ( it is free and proven ) or go to any unix, or otherwise purchase a SMTP and POP3 software for Windows. If you find any free software, which is so good and if you feel you can run your business, then only you need to start your business with any free software.

Regards,
Arul
