Remote mode is familiar to GroupWise users who use Hit the Road. Similar to Caching mode, a copy of your network mailbox (or the portion you specify), is stored on your local drive. You can retrieve and send messages on a periodic basis with the type of connection you specify (modem, network, or TCP/IP). If you do not want a complete copy of your network mailbox, you can restrict what is retrieved, such as only new messages or only message subject lines.
Your GroupWise administrator can specify settings that do not allow you to use Remote mode.
