outlook web access vista ie maybe oh my

Hi - someone please find the person who knows this at MS.
And do not refer me to another newsgroup - I have checked all them with a "Find" for OWA / Outlook Web Access.
Plain and Simple - one can not write emails in OWA while using the either Vista/IE 7.
And I looked in all the referrals herein listed.
Thank you ahead of time.

I think this question on OWA/Exchange would better be answered by one of the Outlook Experts in the Outlook or Outlook general newsgroup or an Exchange group on the MSFT public newsgroup list. Several seasoned MVPs and Outlook book authors man those groups constantly. I'd also post on the Office groups for Office 2007.
The helpers in these public groups are generally not from MSFT and while some of them may look at these posts, they rarely respond although I do see Darell Gorter [MSFT] participate.

Also some google searches on Vista and Outlook Web Access have hits that may help you.
Good luck,

John,
OWA will work with IE 7. It may be that the security level on your IE configuration is set so that it prevents IE from downloading a required ActiveX component for OWA. Open IE's Options and make sure that Download ActiveX Components is enabled for your OWA site. -- Reed Rinn MVP Shell / User
