Outlook 2002 - Highlighted messages downloading when offline...

Environment: Server-Exchange 5.5 SP4 , Client-Outlook 2002 SP2

When connecting to the Exchange server offline it appears that Outlook
2002 still tries to download messages that are highlighted or selected
even if the user is not trying to open it. In our case the user has
disabled the preview pane and Outlook is set to automatically detect
online or offline connection mode.

As an example; when a user deletes an email the next message is
highlighted when the current one is deleted. This makes Outlook
appear to hang if the message selected contains any large attachments.

It seems that Outlook is trying to be too smart and pre-empt the users
needs but it the end it's causing a lot of grief.

Is there a way to disable this feature or bug?
