How did you get a MCSA/MCSE?
Cached mode means when you are offline you can still view
all the items, it sycronizes them on that specific pc
with the exchance server.
offline means you are not sycronizing them.

Cached mode means when you are offline you can still view
all the items, it sycronizes them on that specific pc
with the exchance server.
offline means you are not sycronizing them.

Not quite. Cached mode means that, when connected to an Exchange server,
the server is automatically synchronized with a cache (an OST file) local to
your machine. Offline mode means that you are not attached to the Exchange
server and are referencing the messages in the cache instead of on the
server.
