Kerio Outlook Connector (Offline Edition)

Kerio Outlook Connector (Offline Edition) is a special extension for MS Outlook allowing coop-

eration between Kerio MailServer and MS Outlook. This cooperation provides the following

options:

Email, events, notes, contacts and tasks are stored in Kerio MailServer. Therefore, they are

available via the Internet from anywhere. You can connect either by MS Outlook, by Kerio

WebMail or via another email client.

MS Outlook can be switched to offline mode. This implies that you can manage your email

items also from home or on your business trips. This means that your email can be man-

aged even there where the Internet connection is too slow or there is no connection at

all. After reconnection to the Internet (switching to online mode), Kerio Outlook Connector

(Offline Edition) synchronizes all changes with the mailserver and sends mail from Outbox.

The description indicates that this feature will be used mainly by notebook users. For email

management anywhere, simply open the MS Outlook and start working.

Kerio Outlook Connector (Offline Edition) supports folder management. In MS Outlook, it is

possible to create hierarchized folder trees of any depth. Folder sharing, viewing of shared

folders and other features are also supported.

In calendars, meeting scheduling and, in task folders, assigning of tasks to other persons

are supported.

Kerio Outlook Connector allows setting of rules for incoming email. These rules are stored

at the server, so they are applied globally — i.e. mail will be sorted in the same way in Kerio

WebMail and other email clients.

Along with Kerio MailServer, Kerio Outlook Connector provides a proprietary antispam

strategy.

Kerio Outlook Connector allows searching in message bodies.

Kerio Outlook Connector provides support for message grouping.

Note: The chapter describes settings in MS Outlook 2007. It can, therefore, slightly differ on

older versions of MS Outlook.
