aahh, i see. good. good.
so when we talked about exchange there is really no way to get the mails
from the server except by pop3. i think this way is true for all setups
done for roadwarriors and that is to have local copies/replicas of their
mails. tama or wrong?
if it's right the cisco way seems the only solution to having a virtual
network talaga. Kasi when we were testing it with a laptop configured
with the cisco vpn client, m$ outlook 2k, win95 it acted as if the
laptop is on the home office only that the speed is 28.8 because of the
modem. there were no pop settings just sync'ing of the outlook with the
exchange server.
