POP3 Mail

[Guest]

Hi,
I am using Outlook 2003 at home. At work we are using a Microsoft Exchange
Server 2003.

When I setup a pop3 account pointing to our company mail server, I receive
email to my inbox with no problems. I am not able to receive my "calendar"
or "contacts". If I go under the send/receive folder options for the pop3
mail setup, it only shows the "Inbox" to sync with. Is there a way to pull
down the contacts and calendar using pop3? Thanks.

No. With POP3, the Inbox is all that's available. If you use IMAP, you can
have access to all (or most) of your folders, but contact and calendar
information won't be available (because they aren't messages). For full
functionality, you need to use Outlook, either through a VPN tunnel or in
HTTP over RPC configuration, or use Outlook Web Access.
