Outlook saving images as BMP ?

My desktop is screwed up

realDeal
My mom (computer illiterate) copied the desktop folder to the desktop. Windows didn't allow me to delete it so I just copied it back over the Desktop folder in my user profile. Now the desktop is all screwed up.

Exchange...where is it? Need to setup Intranet mail.

CyberGenX
Can anyone tell me what the OLD MS Exchange came bundled with? Not Exchange Server, but the OLD Exchange. Or can you point me to a LAN Mail server, or Intranet mail server that can run on 98/2000. It has to support printing and attachments.
