I tend to get alot of emails from the engineering dept over the weekend while I'm that my dept needs to follow up on for the following week. A co worker suggested setting up access from home to just pop in from time to time and keep them organized as they come in so I don't have a mess to go through every Monday morning while I'm still struggling to wake up.
I run Windows 10 and I was in the middle of setting this up until I came across a prompt saying that my PCs security settings would need to be changed in order to connect to the network. I didn't like the idea so I didn't go through with it.
So for this reason I've been using the web access client. The problem with this however is that downloading and viewing attachments is a pain in the ass and I need to look at each attachment so I can sort and prioritize.
So my question is; what happens when I connect my PC to the exchange server at work? Does my PC suddenly become their property in a weird technical way?
Can I just set up a Windows 7 installation in a virtual box and connect to work this way to avoid any of these issues?
