Syncing email

[Byte]

I check about 6 email accounts with outlook. I'm getting a laptop and wanna know how i can sync the mail so that i they'll be on both system at the end of the day.

that's a good question. never thought about that. and i also check about 6 email addys as well.

Just set up your email accounts to leave the messages on the server and delete after a day or two

IMO, there is no good way. Leaving msgs on the server works somewhat, but there's no way that I've seen to get different installs of Outlook to sync.

setup an IMAP server and use fetchmail to retrieve your mail. Not the simplest solution if you
don't have any experience with that kind of stuff though. I run my own server that you can
access via webmail or IMAP and it works pretty good.

ditto 🙂 - works like a charm. If you have the knowledge and expertise, I highly recommend this route.
