Being a home and road office worker with DSL, I've really come to love Outlook 11 and Exchange 2003, both of which, by the way, are required to make the cache mode ("Use local copy") work.

I've set up large numbers of users to work this way in the past. While Outlook 11 does offer some enhancements, working offline with an OST is a pretty common scenario. -----Original Message----- From: Neil Doody [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Posted At: Monday, June 09, 2003 9:34 AM Posted To: swynk Conversation: Sync Folders - Small Bandwith Subject: RE: Sync Folders - Small Bandwith Im guessing then that the main disadvantage with current Offline Folder is the fact that when emails come in you are working from the Mailbox, so you open a large email and its not held in your Offline Folders until you synchronise, that means downloading the email again. Also, what would happen if emails got deleted off the server and people synchronise? The synchronise folders will delete the missing emails from themselves? So as it stands, Offline Folders are not really a viable solution for small bandwidth sites as they leave you working from the mailboxes. By sounds of things, the best use for Offline Folders would be a 15 minute synch interval, but once you have a synch of an email are you working from the synch folder or from the Mailbox when you read them and you are Online? _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchange&text_mode=& lang=english To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchange&text_mode=&lang =english To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchange&text_mode=&lang=english To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
