I was also advised to try this:
When you close Outlook while working in Off-line mode
File-> Work Off Line. Outlook will also start in Off-line mode.
I'm going to try them both
Thank you

Referring to Outlook 2000 (assume other versions not too different):

Tools>Options>Mail Delivery. Uncheck "Check for messages
Click to expand...
...." Messages will not be downloaded automatically. Click
"Send/Receive" button or in Tools menu when you want to
download.
