Exchange Mail Folders and PSThave to have two Systems, both have their own exchange servers; I also have a mobile that I use to sync with one of the servers... while I am out of the office.... I have copied one lot of exchange details into a .pst and sync this with a ..pst file on the other system... the problem is syncing the .pst with the exchange files on the other system... so that it seems that I only have one virtual set of details... Can this be achieved? Regards - Paul Show quote

I may not have explain correctly, I am sorry... but I am on two different networks... that cannot communicate with each other... one can connect to the Internet... but the other cannot... so one pst is on each system... regards...

Have you got a laptop or something and you move between locations? I have a PC on restricted on a network (PC A a project based PC)... and I
have another PC on a unrestricted network (PC B a company based PC)... both have there own exchange servers... the systems cannot talk to each other... so I have created a .pst file form PC A and transferred it by USB to PC B... when I am in the office and can see all both Project and Company outlook details on one PC... when I am away from the office I connect to the exchange server on PC B via my Nokia e61i and mail for exchange to get my outlook detail...

Before you start Outlook you put the stick in and wait for it to get the drive letter. Then start Outlook and configure the delivery location of the email to be the PST. Email will then download. Close Outlook, remove the stick and then do the same on the other PC. Horrible. It uses a PST file - bad. It uses a usb stick - damn insecure. It means you're moving unrestricted hardware onto a restricted box - that's gotta be a breach of someone's policy somewhere. Kind of defeats having two separate networks, no?

Yeah, I got so carried away with villifying the solution I forgot a
couple of things, the fundamental security problem being one. Why not leave mail on the Exchange server and quit using PSTs?
