POP or IMAP access will retain his mail and calendar in its current format, but will limit the collaboration tools, such as viewing other people's calendars etc.
POP is pretty slim and unless you force a copy to remain on the server in the client config, you must depend upon the user to maintain a backup and not exceed 2GB. Offline folders might be workable, too. Just have him synchronize while still on the LAN.

Current broadband connection is moving but 1 member will be working from a remote location via slow a$$ dialup for a period of 3 to 6 months. Already have OWA access but they are asking for their mail and calendar in it's current format (not a big mailbox so it's easy to move). Don't want to reinvent the wheel or completely reconfigure the network/ firewall even though it's a ranking official in the company. What's the right solution - POP access to the server? VPN access to the network and OutLook over the VPN? Looking for some ammo and experienced direction.
