Certainly not optimally. However, if you are going to use Outlook over slow speeds, I think RPC/HTTP (and therefore the buffer-packing involved) in cached mode is the way to do it.
I can't really think of a GOOD way to do slow speeds, if you need offline capability... -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ed Crowley [MVP] Sent: Friday, October 08, 2004 5:47 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: OWA-vs-OUTlook via http Right. My point is that RPC-over-HTTP is a way to bypass firewalls, not to use Outlook over low speeds.
