Re: Cached exchange mode, programmatically sync

Hi Andreas,
I've resolved the invalid entry ID issue. Let’s just say a co-worker
changed some code adding a some debug output down in the bowels of the
product. It just happened to append the entry ID to the same string as the
debug output.

Now back to the MAPI_NO_CACHE issue with the OpenEntry call. It seems now
the message can be opened, but it only contains header information. My first
thought was change the sync options to download the entire message, but since
it's a 2000 exchange server there are no such options in the UI of Outlook
2K3. So it still seems the MAPI_NO_CACHE flag is not opening the message
from the mailbox on the server.

Again any info/pointers would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks,
daveo

Why do you think that the message contains only the header information?
