How is it possible I can sync my emails outside work?

[edgardolor]

Hello there guys, I work for a travel agency as it support.
I never got along with "networking stuff" and I always suffered while having to set up Outlook and everything mail/vpn/network related.
So theses guys gave me a notebook to work from home and while not connected through vpn I still can send/receive emails in Outlook 2010.

And... Im asking myself how can this be possible?

Some info:

Outlook version: 14.0.7
Exchange version: 15.0
Sever info: Office 365

Please don't answer smth like "Of course you can cause you're through Exchange..." remember I know nothing about networking stuff!!!!

Thanks in advanced!!!

Presumably, your system both at work and at home is talking to an Office 365 server somewhere.
Apparently, that won't need to go through the VPN.
