SYMPTOMS
You may get the following error message when attempting to send an email message over the Internet from Outlook 97, using the cc:Mail transport service:

No mail transport provided



CAUSE
This error message can have 2 causes:
 * There is no gateway to the Internet from the cc:Mail postoffice.
 * The recipient's e-mail name is not configured to reference the postoffice with the Internet gateway.



MORE INFORMATION
In the first case, the System Administrator must set up a cc:Mail postoffice with an Internet gateway. This postoffice is used to route messages to the Internet.

In the second case, you can configure an e-mail name as an Internet mail address as follows:  Open the source of the e-mail name (Outlook Contact, Personal Address Book, or Postoffice Address List), right-click on the e-mail entry, and click Properties.  In the "E-mail address:" window, add the name of the postoffice with the Internet gateway to the end of the e-mail name.   For example: "JohnDoe@anywhere.com at internet" (Typically, "internet" is the name assigned to the               postoffice set up to route the Internet messages.)  In the "E-mail type:" window, type CCMAIL. Click OK.
