Three Questions

[Travis Montgomery]

Greetings, I'm trying to decide if I can make the switch to outlook and
have three questions. For the record, I have three separate email
addresses that I use regularly, all are forwarded to an IMAP mail
service where they are automatically routed to folders based on the
destination account.

1) Can I have messages I delete in IMAP folders be moved to a "trash"
folder instead of being marked as deleted and can that "trash" folder be
on the IMAP server instead of the Personal Folders?

2) I'd like to have copies of all mail sent, from any of the three
accounts to be copied to the "Sent Items" folder on the IMAP server
instead of the Personal Folders. Possible? How?

3) I have separate email signatures for each of the three addresses.
Can I set Outlook to automatically use a specific and unique signature
for each account?

I'm currently using Mozilla as my email client and love it, all of these
features are available. The reason I'm considering changing clients is
to consolidate my contacts (email, addresses, and phone numbers) in one
place (My PDA syncs w/ Outlook). Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Travis

1) No.

2) Use a rule to copy items to the desired folder and turn off Outlook's
default behavior of saving to the default Sent Items folder.

3) Only in Outlook 2003.
