Just got off the phone with Microsoft (2 hours and 4 tekkies)and they have
confirmed that there is no support in Exchange2003 for mobile users other
than:

a: using OWA
b: using outlook2003 RPC

So if you have teleworkers using outlook 97-2002 (e.g. everyone as
office2003 is beta) forget upgrading to server 2003 in the forseable
future as it wont work. The only 'workaround' they can advise is a tedious
VPN solution which the means the user has to recreate the outlook profile
prior to each and every login.

So much for progress!

Thought I'd let you all know.

Ryan
