I don't have Outlook 2007 so I cannot test it.
This bug seems (amongst other things) to suggest setting problems in Outlook 2007
see post 13 & 14 for example

http://bugs.contribs.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2631

If you think the bug still exists despite supposed fixes having been released, then you should either add to the existing bug report or create a new bug (if you think your issue is different).

Bug reports here in the forums will not get the issue fixed, if there is an issue.

The only issue I have is on the first check when outlook starts it pops up a message about the security certificate not being correct, but that is because its a self signed cert for my use only.

The self signed certificate should work quite OK. Make sure it is installed in your browser(s) (IE), and also access your mail server using
servername.yourdomain.com
rather than
mail.yourdomain.com
ie to match what is on the self signed certificate

Same thing with accessing https websites
ie use
https://servername.yourdomain.com/webmail
or whatever (this must of course be configured to resolve in external DNS eg you need to set the wildcard for *.domain.com)

*** edit Nevermind on that, I will find the howto and instructiosn when I need it and am ready, Don't need to further hijack this thread ***

How can I regenerate a self-signed cert then? The internal domain is mydomain.corp, but the addon-domain for email is mydomain.com. I can change the external domain entry to sme.mydomain.com, but not the internal domaind and workgroup.

signal-event post-upgrade
signal-event reboot

But why do you need to regenerate it ?

The domain referred in the self signed certificate is the main or primary domain name given to the server when you first set it up using the admin console eg mydomain.com.
The servername is the name you first gave the server when it was initially setup.
You will see these displayed at the top of the server manager screen.

The Windows Domain and workgroup name have nothing to do with it.

Yep, have had it successfully filtering our workshop since my original post here.
I don't understand how you could have lost all your http unless you have mistyped one of the instructions.

It works quite well here & regularly stop 10-20k mails from infected PC's
