cached exchange mode to Exchange 5.5

Is there a way to disable this and still have messages
sent from the outbox?

My current problem is that I have turned this off because
I don't want the huge OST on my local drive. Why have the
data twice?

In any case from OL2003 to Exchange 5.5 with all the STORE
hotfixes I can't send mail whether it is local (to myself)
or to an address on the internet.

Any suggestions. I really don't want to deploy cached
mode exchange for local LAN users.

By the way what is the difference between cached mode and
the old OST mechanism anyway?

Thanks in advance!

Fred

it should work fine in classic mode - what errors are you receiving?

there isn't much difference between cache and offline, except all folders
and all messages are enabled for sync by default.
