Outlook 2003 w/Exchange 2000 - Junk filter

[Guest]

When using Outlook 2003 w/ Exch 2K is there any way to get Junk mail
filtering abiltiy from the client level. When I try to change the "Junk Mail
Settings" I recv the message about working in Cached Mode for the settings to
work.
While I am presently testing Postini (blows!) and will next be testing GFI,
I want to upgrade my CEO to Office 2003 but since he makes extensive use of
client side junk filtering, I want him to have the same capabilities in
Outlook 2003 - until I implement a enterprise level anti-spam solution.

How do you do client-side Junk mail/spam filtering in the Outlook 2003 -
Exch 2K setup?

Thanks in advance

Change the CEO to work in cached mode.

Besides the ability to use client side junk filtering, what would be the
advantage of the CEO using Cached Mode. As far as I understand it he wouldn't
automatically - and relatively instantly - receive his messages. His outgoing
messages might send immediately but I'm not sure about that... any advantages?

I've switched all of my users to cached mode. Message delivery is
still pretty quick, though not instantaneous. Exchange or network
outages are relatively transparent to users... Also access to
attachments is done from the local cache as well, so if he is someone
who gets lots of large files to review, the speed perception is
greatly increased. Sending is still just as instantaneous.

Start by testing cached mode on your mailbox, then upgrade the CEO if
you like it.
