When I work at home, I'm on a dialup connection. When I want to check my
mail, I dial up and do a Send & Receive All, then go back offline. I don't
want Entourage interrupting me with an error message because it tried to
receive mail but had no connection to the internet. That's why this progress
business is so annoying: I need to know when Entourage is actually *idle*
before I can disconnect from my PPP server.

Not everyone works the same way; that's why Microsoft gave us the options
Connect, Cancel, and Work Online when you're working offline and do a Send &
Receive All,

peter
