Entourage 2004 and Exchange offline feature

Does entourage work well going online and offline with
synchronized folders?

I started using Entourage only a few days ago. But I live and die by mail
often reading on the plane.

To do this, all you have to do is click ³Work Offline² under Entourage in
the menu.

Yes, Entourage does a good job with offline reader (actually in my opinion
better than outlook 2000). But I have not figured out how to sync folders
other than Inbox. I read some where, you cannot sync for offline any thing
other than Inbox (and its subfolders). So I started moving some of my
folders to Inbox as its subfolders.

I do get error message when I send mail offline, I have not figured out how
to turn off this error message. Although the mail does get queued in the
outbox, I still get error message.

There shouldn't be any limitation with the mail folders that are sync'd with
Exchange. What's the error message you get when you send offline?

I have not yet figured out how to sync other folder. Not that
important to me at this time to spend time to figure this out.

On the second item, it is my error. In outlook whether you are online
or offline, you alway do the same thing to send a mail, you press the
"send" buttton. If it is offline, it goes to outbox and stays there
until connected. But in Entourage if you are working offline, then I
have to press "send later" button, this will put the mail in outbox.
If I am online, then I press "send now" button to send it right away.
When I am offline, and press "send later" then I do not get any error
message. if i by force of habit I press, "send now" button, then it
comes with the error message "server not found".
