Syncing Outlook with Microsoft Exchange

I have recently purchased the Office Small Business 2007.
Prior to this I was using the Outlook Web Access for all my email, contacts
and calendar requirements.
Now that I have Outlook 2007, I have been successful in migrating all the
information from the Web Access to the 'desktop' Outlook. Part of the reason
I wanted to go to Outlook 2007 is that the Web Access mailbox size is limited.
My problem is that when I sync the two, they become a mirror of each other,
I would like to clear up the space on the Web Access and use it only in
emergencies or for checking email when I am away from the office. Is there a
way to have the 'desktop' email bring in only the new emails.

Outlook will show you exactly the same data in the Exchange mailbox as Outlook
Web Access does. That's the whole idea behind using Outlook with Exchange.

If you want to pull all the data out of your Exchange mailbox, create a local
PST and make it the delivery location. That will cause Outlook to suck all
the data out of the Exchange mailbox and keep it on the PC. You will then not
be able to see anything in OWA.
