Hi Greg Thanks for the information. I have seen funny caching issues with Outlook 2003 too. Nothing as major as this I must admit. For example, I logon at my normal PC and delete a number of messages. I then close outlook and either reopen it at another machine or using OWA and some of the supposedly previously deleted data mysteriously returns. You leave this without making any changes and return to the original machine and it is still OK in Outlook as when left but when opening the same mailbox using OWA the deleted data once again returns. I think the obvious conclusion is that the caching mechanism needs dome work yet? Why not disable cached mode, as you have, and return to the offline folder mode of the previous versions of Outlook.

At least in our org. My exchange 5.5 environment has 4 sites. This issue with the DL's is occuring in only one site... It seems that the tech support (in the site having the issues) has rolled out Outlook 2003 against my recommendation. The issue I have with Outlook 2003 are weird issues that result from the Outlook Cache Mode being enabled. Well it seems that the owner of the DL's in that site is making edits, but when logging out of Outlook at the end of the day, her Outlook 2003 client is editing the DL's as they are cached in memory. Thus automatically making the changes. I have asked her to disable the Outlook Cache mode of Outlook 2003 and the issues have stopped. Hope this helps with your issues as well.

I'm pretty much the only person who adds/removes people from DLs in my org, and I've been hearing a lot that people have been dropping off lists. I haven't found anything pertaining to this on the MS KB. Maybe as Exchange 5.5 nears the end of it's supported life, more and more of these bizarre things will start happening.

I have users that are complaining that their Distribution Lists are randomly dropping users and adding them. Any idea what can cause this? Is there a way to see who last edited the DL's? I have verified the following - Each DL has one owner and they swear that they have not made any changes.... There are only a total of 2 people with permissions to make DL membership changes other than myself (exchange admin) - they too state they are not making the changes... I would like to know if there is a way to track the changes, or view who made the last edit. Thanks for any assistance.
