I can give you a perfect reason. The people running the Exchange
server have a 50MB limit on mailboxes. A few project documentation
e-mails with user training guides kills that in a heartbeat. I got one
DB schema document for a project from one of our contractors that was
28MB by itself.

I move everything into my PST also.

Well, if I were using the Outlook client, which maintains a local
cached copy of my mailbox, that would be reasonable EXCEPT that if I
use the Exchange server to store my emails, it also stores my
appointments and contacts there. Since my client (in a business sense)
owns the Exchange server, I don't want to store all my appointments
and contacts, most of which have nothing to do with them, on their
system. I would be concerned about my privacy, and also I don't really
have any right to store my information on their system.

Since there is no way (as far as I know) to store my contacts and
appointments locally, but leave my emails on the server, I have to
store all of them locally.

I did hope that by using TB's Exchange mode, I could set things up to
directly access the Exchange server from TB, and tell Outlook always
to work offline so that my contacts and appointments would only be
stored locally, but that doesn't work.

The other problem is that TB can't do anything with meeting
invitations that are sent via Exchange. They just stay in the Exchange
inbox and never appear in TB. So I have to maintain Outlook connected
to the Exchange server to see those.

 This needs clarification. If your client(s) is/are using Outlook with

 Outlook, it will be called Post Box - Robin Anson or something).

 You can set up additional Personal Storage file(s) and configure Outlook
 that new message will be put there. But AFAIK, the mails are still on
 the Exchange server as well.

No, they disappear from the Exchange server once they are retrieved by
my Outlook client app. The setting I adjust says Deliver new e-mail to
the following location: and I have it set to a local PST file.

If I use Outlook Web Access, I can see mails on the Exchange server.
When an email is sent to this work address, I can see it on the server
through OWA. However, once my local Outlook connects to the server, it
disappears from OWA, and appears in Outlook. Then once the TB Exchange
account connects, the email disappears from Outlook and appears in TB.
There are no copies left on the Exchange server, or in the Outlook
local PST file.

 If you have a setup like this, you'll have at least two roots in the
 left hand explorer-like bar in Outlook: Post box - Robin Anson and
 Personal Storage.

Yes.

 If you're downloading mails to TB, you're not pulling them from the PST
 (no way).

I must be, because they no longer appear in the Exchange view through
OWA. Furthermore, I can retrieve mail into this account without even
being online.

 You're downloading the mails from the Exchange server via MAPI
 to TB. The PST file is already a local copy, just like your TB folders
 if you download mails from the server (via MAPI or POP3).

Yes, it is a local copy, but it also disappears from the server when I
Outlook downloads it, just like the way I have POP configured.

 What Leif is referring to is the way Outlook connects to the Exchange
 server. It may use RPC-over-HTTPS, lets call it MAPI in a HTTPS
 tunnel, a special method normally used for remote connections to the
 server. There's no way TB can do that.

Perhaps my copy of Outlook is doing that too. Certainly I was not
successful in making a connecting to the Exchange server from outside
the office when I set up Outlook to leave mail on the server.

 Do you know if the server is configured for HTTPS over RPC? If so,
 you're in the same boat I am and TB will not work.

I'm not sure - presumably I could tell from the way the Outlook client
is set up to access Exchange?

Actually, I think my situation is more complex. I use Outlook as a
calendaring and contact tool, just don't want to use it as an email
client. Futhermore, I am a freelance consultant and Outlook/Exchange
is the only supported email environment at one of my clients. Because
I use Outlook for all my appointments and contacts, I don't want to
leave these on the server at this single client.

This means I have to set up Outlook to use a local PST file for
everything, including email. So the only way I can get my work email
from this organisation is to have Outlook open and downloading email,
and have TB access the local copy of Outlook and pull mail out of the
PST file.

This works okay (except for the fact that I have to remember to send
all emails immediately rather than putting them in the outbox) most of
the time. It is certainly better than using the mail import wizard
every time I want to get email out of Outlook and into TB. The main
problem I have now is that while invitations to meetings arrive at my
Outlook inbox, they don't get imported to TB. So I still need to
remember to check my Outlook inbox regularly.

To make matters worse, I have a second client that also uses
Outlook/Exchange, but they also have a domain set up to manage their
LAN (my first client doesn't). If I let them set up my laptop for
their domain, it causes all sorts of problems for connecting to my LAN
at home, or my first client, etc. So I am set up with minimal LAN
privileges at this second client and that means I can only access the
Exchange server via Outlook Web Access, which in turn means there is
no way at all to download my email from that client to TB, or even to
my laptop.

Can you influence the admin? :-)

 I find that if I put a message into the outbox of my Exchange
 account expecting it to be sent when messages are downloaded, it
 NEVER goes. I have to do an immediate send when I create the
 message, or click on the SEND button. The combined send and receive
 simply doesn't work.

I have no idea whether I have ever sent an exchange message out while
messages were being downloaded, but I have had no complaints with my
Exchange account. I don't use it as much as my IMAP one but it seems
to work fine, and I'm sure glad I don't have to use the standard
around here outlook.

Hello Robin,

 I seem to have this working for receiving emails, however it does not
 send automatically (i.e. a combined send and receive). It now checks
 MS Exchange for incoming emails at a defined interval, but I have to
 manually send emails.

 Have I missed something, or is that how it works?

There is an issue with using MAPI currently where if you try to send a
message while TB! is checking mail the message will not go and sit
endlessly in your outbox.

In conjunction, since a combined send and receive does just that it
will never send your message. It's a bug that's been reported and if I
knew how to look it up I'd post it here but quite frankly I don't.

But you can at least take solace in knowing it's not just something
you're experiencing, but that doesn't make it any easier to realize a
message you thought was sent is still sitting in your outbox minutes,
hours, or even days later.

Hello self,

 It's a bug that's been reported and if I
 knew how to look it up I'd post it here but quite frankly I don't.

While I can't muddle through bugtracker too well I can search through
TBBETA easily enough!

 However, after looking through the new menus, I cannot see where I
 would set this up. Can anyone provide me with instructions, or a link
 to somewhere I could find instructions, to do this?

 You must create a new account that uses the MAPI - MS Exchange
 protocol.

 Ah yes, now I see that option. Thanks I'll try it.
