I have recently upgraded to Outlook 2003. When I open
Outlook for the first time all the curent emails from
exchange are being copied to the hard drive. So now I
have a set of emails on exchange and the hard drive. A
few mounths of emails equals to several hours of copied
files to the hard drive. My question is how do I keep
all the emails to stay with exchange. With Outlook 2002
after setting up a current user all the emails would stay
with exchange and not copied to the hard drive.
 
This is because you've enabled Cached Exchange Mode. You can disable it on
the Exchange Account properties. Better is to sync it once at your company
instead of on a dial-up. With Cached Exchange mode you've got a copy
available so you don't have to work on-line all the time when reading your
e-mail. If you connect to an Exchange 2003 server you'll also have the
option to just synchronise message headers.
