We once had the problem that some emails with a long text in it were taking ages till they were send. We are using the email router to send and receive emails to our support team.

As we moved some months ago from normal exchange to BPOS my first suggestion was that it has to do with the connection between BPOS and the Emailrouter. ( RU 14)

Get rid of the presence information

Figure 1: Live Messenger

Instead we get this IM presence icon. In 99,9 % it is grey because no one has all the CRM contacts in his Messenger and therefore it is uninteresting for our users.

I now tried to find out how we can turn this off and it is not very easy to find information about this presence information.
