Hi<br />
<br />
So were my comments regarding PUSH and PULL valid in your opinion?

Sorry, I didn't see JBlond's comment before I posted.<br />
<br />
On another note, PULL method is used for POP3 and IMAP and such.<br />

Hi All<br />
<br />
I was hoping someone could explain the difference between cached and online with Exchange. We are using Exchange 2003 with Outlook 2007/2003 clients.<br />
<br />
I thought that with online - Outlook has a constant MAPI (just one?) connection to Exchange. Whenever there is a new message in the user's mailbox, Exchange PUSHES this to Outlook.<br />
<br />
With cached, Outlook PULLS messages at regular intervals (can these be defined)?<br />
<br />
Hope someone can help.

Difference between cached Exchange and 'online with Exchange'

Exchange is the server side of a collaborative application product that is part of the Microsoft Server infrastructure. Exchange's major features include email, calendaring, contacts and tasks, support for mobile and web-based access to information, and support for data storage.

Microsoft Outlook is a personal information manager from Microsoft, available as a part of the Microsoft Office suite. Although often used mainly as an email application, it also includes a calendar, task manager, contact manager, note-taker, journal, and web browser.

Outlook

An email client, email reader or more formally mail user agent (MUA) is a computer program in the category of groupware environments used to access and manage a user's email. A web application that provides message management, composition, and reception functions may internally act as an email client; as a whole, it is commonly referred to as webmail. Likewise, email client may be referred to a piece of computer hardware or software whose primary or most visible role is to work as an email client. Email clients can also have other systems, like calendars, notes and contact managers.
