If using Outlook in Corporate or Workgroup mode, simply set up an .ost for
use when you are working remotely. It will synch with your Exchange server
when on-line and maintain copies of items locally when working remotely.

After furious head scratching,
asked:

| Hello All!
|
| My Outlook 2000 settings cannot seem to understand that I only want it
| to check for Email if I explicitely tell it to do so by hitting F5 or
| Send/Receive. Since I am away from my office most of the time, I want
| to leave everything on the Exchange server so that I can check it on
| the road with OWA (which works great as long as the mail is still
| there...)
|
| I've tried setting Outlook to 'check every 900 minutes'... I've had
| that check box turned off.... I've tried just about all I can think of
| and the dang thing still just pulls down everything without my say-so!
|
| Your help is greatly appreciated!
