You can download just the headers, have a quick check, unmark anything that might be genuine and delete the rest from host.

Cheers Xog, this looks quite good. Linky

IMAP. So simple even I can do it, and I'm "not a real IT person" (AtW). If you're always connected, why store your mails anywhere but on the mail server?

I know you can use MO Exchange to log on so when working from my office PC. All is synchronised instantly. but i have been qouted over 6k to set up a server and have this

thanks!

PDAs are pretty old rope now.

Most modern mobiles like the O2 Exec XDA or the Nokia 9300i can send/receive emails via a mobile provider's Wirelss Access Point allowing you to access your Exchange server.

Isn't this what IMAP was invented for?

Use an IMAP server. That way the e-mails are never on either your PDA or Laptop, but are on your server and you just read them remotely.

Emails!

Hi,

hope you can help.

Im currently fed up of being away for a computer for a couple of days and getting 500 emails. I mean, i can access them from my PDA, come in and they are all on my laptop still...

I know you can use MO Exchange to log on so when working from my office PC. All is synchronised instantly. but i have been qouted over 6k to set up a server and have this

Is there another way or downloading emails to my PDA and it NOT putting them on to my laptop too??

thanks!
