Some GroupWise features work slightly differently in Caching mode than they do in Online mode.
Unless the administrator has enabled External Accounts, the Accounts menu is only displayed in Caching mode.
In the Sent Items folder, the number in square brackets shows how many items are pending to be sent from Caching mode. If you try to exit GroupWise while items are pending, a message warns you that you have unsent items.
If you change any mailbox options under Tools > Options while working in Caching mode, the settings are transferred to your Online mailbox.
Changes in shared folders are updated whenever you connect to the master GroupWise system.
Changes in shared calendars are updated whenever you connect to the master GroupWise system.
When items are archived from your Caching mailbox, they are also removed from your Online mailbox during the next synchronization.
If you have a POP3 or IMAP4 account, you have the option of having the account available in Caching mode but not in Online mode. See Using POP3 and IMAP4 Accounts in Remote and Caching Modes.
Subscribing to other users’ notifications is not available in Caching mode.
