Hi,

W2K + WinXP
Outlook2000 (+ Outlook XP)

1)
I've been trying to figure out how to setup users on slow connections.
Users are using VPN to connect to the Exchange-server, but some are
having problems because of the rather small connection they're using. So
I was hoping to set up the users to use "Offline-mode" and then
synchronise once in a while, (probably every 5 min - which should
happend in the background and thereby not "lock" Outlook when opening
rather large emails). But... At the same time users have the need to
access each others calendars, which is not possible in off-line mode. Or
am I wrong? What I'm ideally looking for is having all mail synchronised
to a local copy on the client but at the same time keeping the option to
watch others calendars. Local mail but online calendar. Is this possible
or are there alternatives (of course besides looking at the bandwidth)?

2)
When you create a new email in Outlook, one can press "To:" and get
access to GAL *and* Contacts. But this not possible in the OWA - only
the GAL is available by search. Am I wrong, is it working as designed, or ??
