If the OALs are not copied to that other server through System Folders or if the site does not have their own OAL Generators, the clients have no other choice but to connect to yours to get their OAB updates.
If you look at the Mailbox Store properties on that server and look at the Offline address list and see what it is set to, then you can see what OAL Generator the clients in that store are using. If that server does not have a local replica, the client will attach to yours to get it's updates. If "Do not allow public folder referrals" is enabled on the RGC then it shouldn't attempt to make the connection anymore to your server and the Cached Mode clients will get a 800XXXXXXXX (can't remember the exact error) during Send/Receive when attempting to get OAB updates. These will also happen if there are any connection problems from the client to the server too. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Larry Wahlers Sent: Tuesday, May 29, 2007 11:30 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Connections to wrong Exchange server Thanks for your reply, Julia.

I don't know how to check for either of these. The users at that (somewhat) remote location are using Outlook 2003 in cached mode. How could I tell if either of these is the problem?
