Hi,

On my laptop I connect to the Microsoft Exchange server
in my office. When I'm at home I use the same machine,
but log onto a different user profile on the machine.
(there are 2 profiles - 'home' and 'work') Obviously this
brings up a different desktop etc.

Essenially I want to synchronise my work emails so that
when I'm out of the office I can read my work emails. I
know how to do this by using offline folders/ setting up
a send/ receive group - but how do I access this
information when i log onto the 'home' setup?

I am using Windows XP Pro and Outlooks XP Pro
..
 
Have you ever tried logging on to your work account while at home? The
reason that I ask is that if the laptop and Outlook are setup from the get
go with roaming in mind, you don't need 2 profiles. (Windows can cache your
domain logon id/password and Outlook has an option to setup offline
folders.)

To setup Outlook to use offline folders, right click on Outlook Today -
Mailbox <username> and select properties. Select Advanced button. Go to
second tab. Near the bottom should be a button option for Offline folders.
 
I know - but I need 2 different profiles because I have a
wireless network at home and need to log onto this as a
different account because of security in the office...

I suppose what I'm looking for is the offline folders,
and to tell outlook to look for these when i open outlook
in the 'home' version??

Not possible, as far as I know.
