Is it possible to synchronize my calendar using IMAP protocol?

I am using calendar from outlook 2002 (and windows XP) and exchange server
at work.

Unfortunately, I am not able to connect to the exchange server directly
outside my workplace.

At home I can use only pop3/smtp or IMAP protocols.

Using IMAP protocol I am able to synchronize my Outlook mailbox

with the mailbox on exchange server.

However I am not able to synchronize my calendar and contacts

(i.e. synchronize my calendar at home (in Outlook)

and calendar at work (in Exchange Server)).

Is it possible to do that?

Andrzej

No. IMAP is a protocol for working with mail folders, not calendars.

No. IMAP only does mail items.
