Is it possible to remotely wipe an Outlook 2007 client that is using Outlook anywhere, similar to how you can remotely wipe an exchange connected mobile device?

What is an "Exchange Connected Mobile Device"? We have Windows Mobile 5 handhelds using ActiveSync on Exch 2003. Can I somehow wipe them remotely? – SirStan Aug 20 '09 at 21:00
Yes. It's a lot more straightforward with Exchange 2007, but you can do it with Exchange 2003, too. – Massimo Aug 20 '09 at 21:57

No, there is no way to do that.

The only thing that could achieve a similar effect is emptying the Exchange mailbox; on the first synchronization, the client will delete its local cache.

Worked perfectly, nice job! I just disconnected his existing mailbox (so I could access it later), re-created a new empty mailbox and the firt time the terminated employee logged in it wiped out his cached mailbox.
