OWA and Outlook 2003
I want OWA and Outlook 2003 to be sync'd up so that if I open/send a message
in either client, both of them will reflect these actions. Is this possible? I have some users that will use Outlook 2003 in the office, but sometimes use OWA when they are away (i.e on vacation, travelling on business, etc). What is the best way to configure these clients? I am using MS Exchange 2003 Server and have it configured to use POP3 as well as IMAP. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks, IRC5150

OWA and Outlook 2003
Since OWA and Outlook both reflect the contents of an Exchange Server
mailbox, they're already in sync. Hal -- Hal Hostetler, CPBE -- Senior Engineer/MIS -- MS MVP-Print/Imaging -- WA7BGX http://www.kvoa.com -- "When News breaks, we fix it!"

OWA and Outlook 2003
OK. I thought OWA used http as the transport. Outlook 2003 uses POP3 or
IMAP. How do I configure Outlook2k3 for incoming mail. I want to use both clients...OWA for remote users and Outlook for in-house users, but I want the users to use either client interchangably. So, that everything that's done (send/receive, rules) in OWA is reflected in Outlook and vice versa.

OWA and Outlook 2003
Brian,
I am using an Exchange account for all my users. Currently, they are using Outlook 2000 (configured as Internet mail) for interoffice mail and OWA when they are out of the office. I want to upgrade them to Outlook 2003, but I don't know what protocol to use to set them up. The way it is now, if they receive a message and use Outlook 2000 to open it up, then they won't see it in OWA or vice versa. Sending messages in OWA can still be seen in Outlook 2000 (I guess because it's using SMTP...I'm not sure). I want both of these interfaces to reflect incoming/outgoing activity. How do I set this up? Ray "Brian Tillman" wrote: IRC5150 wrote: OK. I thought OWA used http as the transport. Outlook 2003 uses POP3 or IMAP. How do I configure Outlook2k3 for incoming mail.

OWA and Outlook 2003
Again, why are you using Outlook 2000 as a POP3 client against an Exchange
Server? That totally eliminates most of the feature set and functionality designed into both products. Use Outlook in native Exchange Server mode, then "both of these interfaces WILL reflect incoming/outgoing activity" and always be in sync. For Outlook 2000, that would be Corporate/Workgroup mode. I, personally, would rather have everyone use OWA everywhere rather than give them Outlook and force them to use POP3 with the Exchange Server instead of native Exchange Server mode.

OWA and Outlook 2003
Hi Hal,
I'm not sure why they're set up that way. I just inherited this configuration from the previous e-mail administrator. OK. I think I understand your point. If I change their config to corporate mode does that make them use MAPI for incoming and still use SMTP for outgoing? Will I still be using .pst files? I agree with OWA for everyone and I'm going to push management into only using that interface. But, how do I get their email over now? How do I convert their email from their current folders (Inbox) as well as their Sent mail? Will their rules transfer as well?

OWA and Outlook 2003
Diane,
Thanks for the reply. I will try what you suggested. Where do I get Exmerge? Is that an Exchange 2003 utillity? Ray "Diane Poremsky [MVP]" wrote: they could use the pop's smtp to send or you can correctly configure exchange to send mail to the internet. they will not use a pst once you add the exchange acct to their profile - they will use the exchange mailbox. Copy the mail and other outlook items into the exchange mailbox then close the pst. you could use Exmerge - or tell the users to copy over what they want and kept the pst as an archive. With outlook 2000, you should export the rules and import them after you move the mail over and remove the pst. I think. It's been so long since I used 2000 that I forgot.

yes, it is an ex2003 utility. it should be in the admin tools, if not, its
in the Microsoft download center. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Author, Teach Yourself Outlook 2003 in 24 Hours Need Help with Common Tasks? http://www.outlook-tips.net/beginner/ Outlook 2007: http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/ol2007/ Outlook Tips by email: Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com Subscribe to Exchange Messaging Outlook newsletter: "IRC5150" wrote in message news  Diane, Thanks for the reply.
