No.  This is a significant and long standing deficiency in OWA, and probably
an entrepreneurial opportunity similar to the one that ASL (now a part of
Extended Systems) worked on.

One could do it two ways - stupidly or neatly.  The stupid way would be to
pull the data from the OWA U/I.  The neat way would be to build an extension
to the OWA server that made the synch data available to a browser plug-in,
which in turn would update any of several local stores.  A good
implementation would support the following stores at a minimum:
        .OST
        Pocket PC and Pocket PC 2002
        Palm/Handspring 

I doubt that it is worth doing a .PST synchronizer.

If you stop and think about it, it is really lame that a PDA can't call
Exchange, look at the store contents in a browser, and then synch anything
that is worth the bandwidth cost (time and money).  This is especially true
if you consider something like a "Stinger" phone.

If someone out there decides to build this, call me.

Anyone know of a utility that you can install on the OWA server or client
that will download emails from the Exchange server and place them in your
OST or PST?  And then upload changes to the Exchange Server?  I'm looking
for a way to bypass the synchronization required for people that work
offline.  

If you could point me to a website that would be great.. I've been searching
all morning and came up with a few calendar sync programs.. but nothing that
does actual emails.

Thanks in advance.
