I have found an issue with Outlook 2003 with Exchange 2003 that isn't
mentioned as a caveat in the online help for Outlook.
If you use the new cached mode for your Exchange mailbox, messages set up as
"Do Not Deliver before:" don't work as expected. The message sits in your
Outbox until the next time you open Outlook rather than sending the message
to the server for delivery at the specified time.

Is this correct? Is this as expected? Is my only option not to use cached
mode?

I would like to continue to use cached mode but some users do make use of
the delayed delivery feature.
