Dear Milan Thank you very much.
If I follow your instructions for the offline address book and click on "Fetch List" button, I get a new password request for the <EWS account>. Although I put in the correct username and password the password request just keeps on popping up again and again. Consequently I am not able to select a list. Any idea why?
