How To Pick Up Email Remotely From Outlook Using Microsoft Exchange Server

If your organization or company has given you a Microsoft Exchange account, all of your email messages will be stored on the Exchange server. However, you can enable cached Exchange mode in Outlook, which will allow you to pick up your email remotely, even if you do not have an active network connection at the time. When you turn cached Exchange mode on, a full copy of your Exchange mailbox is downloaded to your computer so that you can access it at all times and from all locations. Following are the Outlook email setup instructions that will help you to configure Exchange Server to pickup emails remotely.

Instructions

• Double click the Microsoft Outlook Express application on your desktop. Enter your username and password to log into your Outlook account.
