Common sense is admitting there is cause and effect and that you can exert some control over what you understand.

I would read up on OST file if you use outlook as your mail client.
Effectively it does both. Stores them on your disk as well as the server.
advantage is that you have access to them if your exchange server is offline. But you can't send when you lose connection to the server either

In ur case if did the mail database was corrupt and couldn't be repaired. Having the OST files on the clients PC was a great help, we are now moving to Office 365 which should be an interesting exercise, I been been working on EWS and Azure.

Is Outlook 20xx not automatically set to cache mode at your company?

Apologies for making this a link to my blog, but there are 3 screenshots from the site that obviously can't go here.

As far as the P.O. Box thing goes, I guess that makes you homeless. Come to think of it, since this is a government agency, that would probably up your priority.

Sounds like bad design. Is there another field for residential address?
For example: when registering to vote here you cannot use a P.O. Box as your registration address. However, you can use it is a mailing address for mail correspondence. Now, of course when determining who you are, it should use your place of residence and not your mailing address. But not allowing P.O. Box for mailing is just bad design.
I wonder what would happen if you entered an APO or FPO if you were overseas for military service.

Why would they care if you use a PO Box?
I guess it makes it difficult to 'collect' you in the night if they don't know where you live.

You can always try
Address Line One:
C/O
Address Line Two:
PO Box 12345

Yeah, I tried that (putting in my actual physical address for line #1) and it still complained about line #2!

A comment posted on the Affordable Care Act/Obamacare FB page:
"I actually made it through this morning at 8:00 A.M. I have a preexisting condition (Type 1 Diabetes) and my income base was 45K-55K annually. I chose tier 2 "Silver Plan" and my monthly premiums came out to $597.00 with $13,988 yearly deductible!!! There is NO POSSIBLE way that I can afford this so I "opt-out" and chose to continue along with no insurance. I received an email tonight at 5:00 P.M. informing me that my fine would be $4,037 and could be attached to my yearly income tax return. Then you make it to the "REPERCUSSIONS PORTION" for "non-payment" of yearly fine. First, your drivers license will be suspended until paid, and if you go 24 consecutive months with "Non-Payment" and you happen to be a home owner, you will have a federal tax lien placed on your home. You can agree to give your bank information so that they can easy "Automatically withdraw" your "penalties" weekly, bi-weekly or monthly! This by no means is "Free" or even "Affordable.
Hehehe... Forty years ago my dad told me that he believed there was a conspiracy to destroy the middle class and create a two-class society - the rich rulers, and the destitute, dependent slave class. I thought he was a paranoid old fool. Sorry, Dad...

Hey, guys.
I'm almost out of the writing cave. The new edition of Tribes is now on the street, rewritten from the ground up to talk about running & managing tech endeavors. Have Fun, Get Paid is in the final stages of review and that one should be out around the first of November. And then I sleep. 
If any of you are in a leadership role, here's the Kindle version (there's a paperback as well).
Unite the Tribes: Leadership Skills for Technology Managers (2nd Ed)[^]
Signed a two book deal and said, "Hey, let's use the same deadline for both." What was I thinking?

I have already bought my copy. Only problem is - I can't get my Kindle copy signed by the author. 
|
|
|
|
|
Yeah, that's the downside of eBooks. For cute girls I can just sign the appropriate body part. In other words, you're on your own, mate.

You're not using all those pixels, are you? Just have the author sign across the screen (with permanent marker).

Thanks, man. You know how good it feels to finally get one of these things off your desk. I love writing, but after a couple of months I just want to walk away from the computer and go play guitar.

We're going live tomorrow on this site[^] which I've been tailoring from an open source crowdfunding package written in Ruby on Rails, and I know exactly what you mean - I just want to head up to Woodstock and hang out with the aging hippies for a few weeks.

Cool site, man. Nice, clean design elements. Also good production values on the video.
But yeah, I'm with you on the hippies.

That's better than me. After the second day I just wanted to go and flush my own head! Every little thing I write sparks off a massive amount of research to verify this and that; it's like a huge snowball rolling down a deeply snow-covered hill.

Academic stuff is waaay above my pay grade. I just write about the human race. A much simpler topic.

I just read the synopsis and I have a question - were you at all influenced by Covey's The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People?
I'm mainly asking because I'm in the middle of reading it and there's some good stuff in there.
BTW, I also enjoyed The Diamond Cutter[^] though it has a definite Buddhist bent to is (and yeah, Covey's book occasionally oozes Christianity, hahaha, but there's Buddhist philosophies in it too) Anyways, I digress.
Marc

No, I haven't ready Covey but I get that a lot - comparisons to both him and Peter Drucker, whom I should probably also read.
The synopsis is a little AFU at the moment as stuff from the first edition, which was a completely different book, is in there as well. Working to get that cleaned up, as the 2nd edition is pointing directly at the tech sector.
The Diamond Cutter looks interesting. I have a pretty open mind about philosophies - I'll take truth wherever I can find it.
