PSt files and calandars

[jim.butts]

I am stuck with a VIP user that demands to download his mail from the
exchange 2003 server into his own PST file. He's now discovered that
his calandar is not in sync with his server calandar. He claims that
in a previous company this worked fine. I do not reccomend or want to
support PST files for use with exchange but here I am. My questions
are:

1. Would this in fact have worked in the past? Should a PST delivery
location automatically synconize deletes and adds with the server
calandar?

2. If it's not the default (and I doubt it is) is there anyway to make
it work?

3. Pretending for a momment that the VIP is not a complete knucklehead
what would explain his thinking that it did sync? (maybe there is a
way to make an .OST look like a PST?)


thanks

Hi Jim,

maybe he used in the past a synchronization tool, thats synchronized his
Exchange Mailbox with his PST file:
