Tools=>Send/Receive Settings=>Define Send/Receive Groups

click "Edit" and check all the folders you want to include

click "OK"

check "Perform automatic Send/Receive when exiting"

click "OK"

Don't know OL2002, but in OL2000, set up Offline Folder capability from within the Exchange service in Outlook:

1) Tools, Services, Microsoft Exchange service, Properties
2) Click on the Advanced Tab and check the box for "Enable Offline Use"
3) OK, OK
4) Back in Outlook, go to Tools, Options
5) Select the Mail Services tab and make sure the following are checked off:
Enable Offline, When online synchronize..., When online automatically synchronize...
6) Click on Offline Folder Settings and select all the "folders" that you want to sync
7) OK
8) Back in Outlook: Tools, Synchronize, All Folders -- first time you do this could take a while....
9) Pull your network cable at work and re-launch Outlook and test it out...should work just fine

Do you see it synchronizing before you log off of Exchange (Outlook)? This is set by one of the options I mentioned above, but you can also do it manually:
Outlook: Tools, Synchronize, All Folders

What happens when you do this? Also, check the synch logs -- these are kept in the Deleted Items folder, I believe....

Hello:
I did all the things required for working offline folders, but still no luck.

dont know where its going?
More comments are appreciated.
