Public WEB PST must be installed in Corporate or Workgroup mode
In Outlook® 97, 2002, 2003 and 2007 this distinction does not exist. The following dialogue therefore applies only to the Outlook® 98 and 2000 versions.
The mode of installation can be checked in Outlook® by way of...
Help => About Microsoft® Outlook®

If you are using Outlook® XP (2002), Outlook® 2003 or Outlook® 2007, this reorganization is not necessary. The modes have been unified in Outlook® XP (2002), Outlook® 2003 or Outlook® 2007. You don't need to change settings under Outlook® 2002 (XP), Outlook® 2003 or Outlook® 2007.

Comprehensive information, help with the configuration and advice on the differences between the two IMO (Internet Mode Only) and CW (Corporate or Workgroup) can be found on the webpages of Microsoft®.

To provide lengthy support on this point in the present manual would far exceed the available space.
Important note: By "server" we do not mean a domain controller like the NT or Windows® 2000, 2003 server, we mean the Public ShareFolder (POL) POL32.exe program which is a part of Public WEB PST for Outlook®.
