Configuration as follows: RAID-1 - 2 partitions C: and D: RAID-5 - 1 partition E: C: is the system drive, D: the Exchange logfile and E: is the location for the Exchange databases.

Outlook notification for hotmail
Is there a way I can get my outlook to notify me when there's new mail in my hotmail inbox when outlook is minimized?

Command-line switch to open Outlook 2003 in Cached Mode?
Experts, Is there a command-line switch to open Outlook 2003 in Cached Mode? I use a roaming profile, which goes best with non-cached mode. But on my traveling laptop I only want to use Cached Mode. If I log off the laptop while connected to the domain with OL 2003 in Cached Mode, that resets my roaming profile to use Cached Mode which is not what I want.

Most requested features missing from Outlook?
As a developer I'm curious about what people want to get out of Outlook that isn't already built in. It would be interesting to see a list of features that people really want and need. For example, many people including myself have lots of issues with the Rules Wizard, spam, etc. I wrote a replacement for the Rules Wizard which gives much more control over filtering than the default Rules setup. It allows for custom regular expressions and complex AND/OR patterns. Filters can be shared, imported like automatic anti-virus definitions, etc. I know there are many such products alrea...

Outlook 2003 cached exchange mode folder size issue
Using Outlook 2003 and Exchange 2003, connection via HTTP and using cached exchange mode for synching everything up. I noticed when looking at folder sizes that there are two tabs - local data and server data. The sizes for the same folders do not match, in fact the local data is about twice the size of the server data for the account with various discrepencies for each folder. When viewing the account in OWA, it is exactly the same as the account viewed in Outlook. Is this an issue with the local copy having free, unused space in the data file? Can this local file be "cleaned" to r...
