Setting Up Your Caching Mailbox

Setting up a Caching Mailbox requires enough disk space (either on your local hard drive or another network drive) to store all the data in your mailbox.

1. Make sure GroupWise is installed on the computer where you want to set up your Caching Mailbox.

2. Click File, click Mode, then click Caching.

   or

   Click Caching on the drop-down list above the Folder List.

3. Type the path for your Caching Mailbox, then click OK.

4. Make sure you have a password on your Online Mailbox.

   GroupWise automatically updates the Caching Mailbox with an image of the Online Mailbox. The initial update or "priming" should not be interrupted until it is complete. You will be prompted to restart GroupWise to change to the Caching Mode.

   After the Caching Mailbox is primed, you may want to run GroupWise in Caching Mode without changing modes from Online to Caching.

   To run in Caching mode,

5. Click File, click Mode, then click Caching.

   or

   Click Caching on the drop-down list above the Folder List.

6. You are asked to are asked to restart GroupWise, click Yes.

   When GroupWise restarts you are in Caching mode.

You can also open your Mailbox in any mode and select Caching from the Mode drop-down list.
