solve error message "unable to start processing services"

[Laulen]

Can you help me?

Does anyone know how to solve this error message, "unable to start
processing services"?

When I start Outlook 2003 (this is business software and I cannot upgrade),
a notice states from the Microsoft Exchange Server that "Exchange is
currently in recovery mode. You can either connect to you Exchange server
using the network, work offline, or cancel this logon."

I choose connect and it logs on in the usual way.

Then, the above message occurs in my start menu at the bottom right of my
screen.

All activities on Outlook apart from reading emails, contacts, calendar and
tasks cannot be accessed as "The operation failed" error message appears.

All ideas gratefully received.

Thank you.

This is the key phrase;

Exchange is currently in recovery mode.

Contact your mail administrator. Sounds like they are having or had some
issues with their mail server. If they've fixed it now, the way in you need
to restore, without any data loss, depends completely on the method they
restored the mail server. Contact them and they should be able to walk you
through it.
