Viewing CRM 4.0 Reports in Report Manager

Some of my previous posts (e.g. http://mscrmuk.blogspot.com/2008/01/scheduling-and-emailing-reports-with.html) were written based on CRM 3.0. Most of the reporting principles are similar for CRM 4.0, but the reports are configured slightly differently within Report Manager. The key differences are:
  1. The CRM items are hidden by default in Report Manager. If you browse to the OrganisationName_MSCRM folder you won't see the hidden items. To see them, click on the 'Show Details' button on the right of the toolbar
  2. The CRM 4.0 reports are stored in a sub-folder called 4.0. Click on this folder to see the reports
  3. CRM 4.0 specifies the ReportID Guid as the report name, and the friendly name is now in the Description fields

  3. Thank you! But i have a new problem..
    I use Scheduling the Report in Report Manager. And i see in Report Manager (in My Subscription):

    "Failure sending mail:The transport failed to connect to the server"

    Why it may be?
