If you do not have cached mode - then Outlook needs to be connected to Exchange to allow for the user to be able to view their mail, contacts etc.
If you use cached mode, then the user can work offline, disconnected from Exchange. Everything will sync when Outlook is reconnected to Exchange. Cheers Ken From: Jon Harris [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, 27 February 2008 10:18 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Exchanged cached mode Sorry for the very basic question here. What is the difference between cached and un-cached mode in the client setting for Exchange? I am not the Exchange admin, you could not pay me enough to take on that extra work, but I do have to support the clients. We are moving from a Linux POP/IMAP server to Exchange and all of my clients are currently set up to POP their mail. I do have mobile clients that I already know will be an issue but I will start on that later. At the moment I am looking at just getting this setup and understanding why somethings are certain ways and not other ways. I will discuss specific issues with the Exchange admin. Any guidance would help a lot. Specific reading for non-Exchange aware people would be more help.
