How do I use delivery options together with local PST-file ?

[Guest]

I'm using Outlook 2003, a PST-file on my PC to deliver e-mail to and MS
Exchange server in the LAN.
If I create a new email with delivery options set to deliver this email in
future (e.g. next day 10:00), the email won't leave my outbox-folder in the
PST-file on my local PC until this particular time is reached. Thus I'm
unable to shut down Outlook, as it immediatelly complains about "there are
still e-mails waiting in Your outbox...".
(or I shut down my PC, but then this email does not leave the Outbox).

How to solve this ?
Can I redirect send email to the outbox folder on my exchange server only (
keeping delivery of incomming email to my local PST-file) ?

thx

No. Why are you using a PST file? I don't recommend this. If your data is
important, it belongs on the server, so it can be centrally managed, backed
up, and accessed from other computers (such as via OWA). I don't allow users
to use PST files for delivery on any of my clients' networks and I even
discourage archiving to PST - PST files are fragile things, and are not
ideal for corporate mail use.

The outgoing email must be in your actual mailbox outbox and not in the PST
outbox.

I know, but how to achieve it ?
Outgoing to outbox of Exchange server, incomming email to PST file !

Change your delivery location from the PST to the Exchange mailbox.

only ( keeping delivery of incomming email to my local PST-file) ?

No, but ou can use rules to move incoming messages from the Exchange mailbox
to the PST.

Right. And I answered your question - see the word "no" at the beginning of
my reply?
