Dear all,

My company uses microsoft great plains dynamics for its accounting purposes.

recent expansion into china requires to support chinese characters in customer addresses and names.

my vendor says great plains dynamics just doesn't support chinese input via the microsoft ime (but somehow njstar can input chinese into it), but integration from my office custom application is thus impossible... so taking their word for it, does anyone have alternative packages to recommend?

If you've got some technical chops Linux should work fine in a workgroup setting, and the upfront costs can go into your pocket. If you're Clueless about computing, if you want it done for you, then maybe Microsoft will work better for you.

I have a couple questions about Hotmail.

First, my mother uses Hotmail's web interface, and she often gets message delay notifications containing the text "Delivery to the following recipients has been delayed." From the messages that I've been able to find in her inbox, this has happened only when she's emailing AOL users. That leads me to assume that it's a problem on AOL's end (especially since my mother uses Hotmail's pay service), but if anyone has any input or solutions, I'd be appreciative.

Second, my mother, like I said, got a paid Hotmail account so that she could use Outlook Express to send and receive her Hotmail email. However, even though I've tried everything I can think of, I can't get OE to send mail via Hotmail's outgoing server. I get the error message "The server does not support the required HTTP methods (I'm using http://services.msn.com/svcs/hotmail/httpmail.asp and have checked multiple times to ensure that I have her account configured per Microsoft's instructions). Can anyone give me any suggestions? Would she do better just to have her Hotmail email forwarded to her Gmail account, which, presumably, would work just fine with OE?

Thank you very much, in advance.
