Hi!

I have a email box and all my mails are downloaded to my local .pst
file when i click send/receive button.

I have one copy on the server and one on my local drive.

I want to disable the sync/downloading of mails to local
drive/pst-file.
I only want to have the mails on the server?

I use:

Outlook 2003, exchange account type.
Have unmarked, Use cashed mode.
And default dilevery box is my exchange mailbox.

exchange server and SBS2003.

These statements seem to be at odds. There's no way I know for Outlook to
download Exchange messages from the mailbox to a PST when the delivery
location is the mailbox, unless you have some rule doing the copying. There
must be something you're leaving out.

As Brian said, this makes no sense. You can't have items downloaded to your
PST file *and* have delivery set to your Exchange mailbox. And if you want a
copy of your mail to be in the mailbox *and* available offline on your
workstation, you need to enable cached mode.

I suggest you get rid of the PST file in your profile, and use cached mode
so you have a local replica of your mailbox on this PC.
