Delayed mail - Do Not Deliver Before feature

[Brad]

I've got several reports of Outlook 2007 connecting to Exchange 2003
servers not being able to use this feature of they close Outlook.

Everything I read says that as long as they are not using Exchange
Cached mode, they should be able to draft an email, delay it in
options, then close Outlook.
This doesn't work for them. If they close the client, the mail does
not send until the users log back in when they return.
This is Outlook 2007 on Vista Enterprise

anyone have any thoughts on this?

Thanks

Are you 100% sure they are not using cached mode or a pst?

Is the delivery location the Exchange mailbox or a local PST?

Yes. I've had them compare screen shots to my setup. I also confirm
this behaviour on my desktop. No cached mode, delivery is to Exchange
server

Brian, the delivery location is to the Exchange Server. No PST, no
OSTs.
