Hi Guys:

I am setting up a Windows Sharepoint Services web site for my Help Desk
Team.

I'd like to be able to have a web part for Outlook that hosts the HelpDesk
Inbox as a part of the site.

Everything I google says that the Outlook Web Parts are a part of SPS 2003
and not WSS.

If that is the case, how can i create a web part that has a specified Inbox
appear?

This inbox is a shared inbox for my help desk guys. Our users email this
periodically. I'd like to have this inbox available 24 x 7 on the Help Desk
WSS site i am creating.
thanks.

Hi,
You can do this on WSS by using OWA url in a Page Viewer web part, or place
the Outlook activex control code in a Content Editor web part as per this
example (add the site to your trusted sites zone)

Using OWA you should be able to do this but the Activex control uses the
current MAPI profile (the same thing that Outlook uses to open a mailbox
when it starts)

To expand on Ian's answer, if you go the OWA route, if the shared mailbox is
a public mailbox you'd specify it like this:

http://owaserver/exchange/mailbox

If it's a public folder it would look like this:

http://owaserver/public/mailbox
